Ok I have been reading through the pages on this forum and I am THRILLED to have all these great recipes to choose from....so now for my questions.

Does anyone have a recipe for the breakfast quiche. I get up pretty early so something I could heat and eat on my way to work would be great. Any other portable easy to be made and frozen ideas are MUCH appreciated too!

I used to make a cream of potato soup post op and my husband is asking for it again. Is this something I can have (Im thinking no) or something similar I can try to woo him with?

And I see a lot of the recipes use spices I dont have are these something I can get at any food store? We only have the commissary here and walmart unless I venture out further. Can I buy the ones in the spice section or what?

Thanks in advance!

Here are a couple different quiche recipes I have made.
You should be able to get most of the spices you will ever need at Walmart.  Have Fun!
