I took the day off work today and invited a few of my girlfriends over for lunch - I was in two minds as to what to cook and then the Mydish weekly emailer popped into my inbox. I liked the look of this Salmon and Asparagus Filo Quiche and decided to give it a go. Well my mates were totally blown away and I am now Miss Popular - thanks for sharing this it is just fab!
