This recipe harks back to simpler times, times when I'd have the most serious fights over who'd dared to open my pint of milk, and special meetings to discuss the neglected cleaning schedule.... I'm talking of course of my student days!
One of my flatmates, Sophia, who usually lived exclusively off Caesar salad and Baked Beans, sometimes liked to throw a third food group into the mix... Sin-Free Quiche.
Much like Delia's How to Cheat collection, this recipe uses ready made items such as macaroni cheese from a can, so you can literally just throw it together- great if you're busy studying or holding down a full-time job.
The recipe was given to Sophia by her kind sister, Jody and simplified to meet our meagre budget. So here it is, I give you Sin-Free Quiche!

4. Place eggs, macaroni and cottage cheese in an ovenproof dish and combine.
