These mini quiches use blue cheese and caramelised onions for a delicious savoury filling. You could swap the cheese for any blue cheese you like, depending on your preference.
The quiches are baked in ready-made tart cases, which saves a lot of time and hassle when you are entertaining guests. Simply fill and pop them in the oven.
