Raviole Quiche Recipe

This entry is another recipe with ravioles, the small ravioli taht are typical from Romans, a town near Grenoble. This time, they are presented as a quiche . The truth is, I have not seen this quiche out of Romans very often, it is not so easy to find, contrary to what happens with the raviole gratin. Nevertheless, this quiche has become one of my favorites since the first time I tried it, even though it may seem weird to make a quiche with pasta.
Preparing the raviole quiche is very similar to the preparation of a quiche lorraine. The only difference is that instead of bacon, ravioles are added. As for other preparation swith ravioles, they are frozen before use them to allow them to separate much easier.
