Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Spread the tomatoes out in a single layer on a shallow baking pan and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Roast on the top rack for 15 minutes. Add the olives and continue to roast until the tomato skins are dark brown and black in spots, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven and reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, pulse the bread into crumbs in a food processor. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add the breadcrumbs and stir until evenly toasted, about 5 minutes. Evenly spread the crumbs in a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie pan. Place the pan on a baking sheet.
- Wipe out the skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the onions and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook over medium-high heat until translucent and starting to brown, about 4 minutes; add the lemon zest and cook for 1 minute more. Cool slightly.
- Whisk the half-and-half and whole eggs and yolks in a large glass measuring cup. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Evenly spread the onions in the prepared pan. Combine the Emmentaler and fontina and scatter over the onions. Top with the roasted tomatoes and olives and sprinkle with the rosemary. Pour the custard over the fillings.
- Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool completely on a rack before serving.
ROSEMARY'S MINI QUICHES
Great for entertaining as they can be made in advance, refrigerated for a few days and re-heat really well. Also fabulous for hiding vegies in to give to the kids, they just love them. The "flavour" (Onion, Bacon) ingredients can be substituted for just about anything. (eg. Tomato and Spinach or Salmon and Chives) and My Sewing teacher gave me this recipe a year ago, I use it all the time.

Tips for Making Rosemary's Mini Quiches:
- Use fresh rosemary for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh rosemary, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried rosemary.
- Grate the cheese finely so that it melts evenly.
- Don't overfill the quiche cups. The mixture should come about 2/3 of the way up the sides of the cups.
- Bake the quiches until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the quiches cool for a few minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
These mini quiches are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be made ahead of time and frozen. For a vegetarian option, you can omit the bacon. You can also experiment with different fillings, such as spinach and feta or ham and cheese. Get creative and have fun with it!
