Crustless Quiche

I love to cook, but sometimes I just don't feel like spending an hour or two in the kitchen making dinner.  Tonight was that kind of night so I made a crustless quiche.  Just a little chopping and a quick saute before I pour it into a pan and let the oven take over.  This is a recipe we love, but I sometimes change the veggies depending on what I have on hand.  Feel free to do the same.
