Discover the perfect pairings for your quiche with our guide on what to serve with this versatile dish. From fresh salads and roasted vegetables to light soups and refreshing beverages, elevate your quiche experience with these delicious and complementary sides.
Quiche is a delicious savoury pie from France, famous for its creamy egg filling in a flaky crust. The classic version, Quiche Lorraine, usually has bacon and cheese, adding a rich and tasty flavour. Over the years, quiche has been made with all sorts of fillings like vegetables, seafood, and different meats, making it a versatile dish for any time of the day. Whether served warm or cold, quiche is loved for its perfect blend of eggs, cream, and various ingredients, making it adaptable to many different tastes and dietary needs.
My favourites include broccoli and tomato, with a tangy tomato paste spread onto the pastry, before it’s filled with eggs. Or, a red onion marmalade quiche, with a thick layer of marmalade under the eggs.
Whether it’s served for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner, quiche is incredibly popular because of its flavour and versatility.
The right complementary sides, however, can turn an easy quiche into a delicious and filling meal. Let’s take a look at what to have with quiche.

Steamed asparagus is a simple and elegant side with plenty of flavours. Try seasoning simply with salt and pepper, or adding lemon, garlic or olive oil for something extra special.

Sautéed Spinach
Spinach is nutrient-rich flavorful and easy to make. Add garlic, toasted pine nuts or crumbled feta for a well-balanced and tasty side dish.
Green Beans
Green beans are crunchy and very healthy. Steam or boil for a super easy side dish to serve with your quiche.
Bread and Pastry
If you want some carbs with your quiche, breads and pastries are the ideal filling sides.
Fresh Baguette or Bread Rolls
Warm, fresh bread is perfect for soaking up quiche filling, or just enjoying as a side. Serve with fresh butter or extra virgin olive oil so it’s not too dry to enjoy.
Sandwiches and Wraps
Sandwiches and wraps are great with quiche for lunch.
Something big, like a Pulled pork sub is great, but something simple like ham or cheese can also taste great.
Croissants or Pastries
Fresh, warm, croissants or pastries are perfect with quiche for a buffet-style breakfast or lunch. The light, flakey texture offers a great contrast to the dense quiche filling.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes
If you want the comfort of potatoes, with more nutrition, roasted or baked sweet potatoes make a cool alternative. Sweeter than white potatoes, they offer a contrasting flavour.

Soups
If you are having quiche for lunch or dinner in the winter, you might want to add a more warming element. Soup is perfect!
Tomato Basil Soup
Tomato and basil soup is a classic. Its rich and tangy flavour can be the perfect complement to a creamy quiche. Add fresh basil or a drizzle of cream for a finishing touch.

Cream of Mushroom Soup
The earthy flavours of cream of mushroom soup with mushrooms, thyme and fresh cream, can be fantastic served with a seafood or roasted veg quiche.
Gazpacho (Cold Soup)
If you fancy soup on a cold day, gazpacho offers a refreshing option. Try tomatoes, cucumber, bell peppers or garlic.
Drinks
Of course, side dishes aren’t the only things that you need to add to your quiche for a satisfying meal. You’ll need a drink too!
Coffee or Tea
If you are having quiche for breakfast or brunch, a cup of tea or coffee is the perfect drink pairing.
Strong, black coffee, creamy lattes, fruit teas, Earl Grey, or classic English breakfast are all perfect, and there are tea or coffee options to suit all tastes.
If you like hot drinks, but not tea or coffee, a hot chocolate can be a decadent treat.
Fresh Juice or Smoothies
For a vibrant, healthy drink that’s refreshing and energizing, try a fruit smoothing. Pineapples, bananas, mangos, strawberries and blueberries are all great smoothie ingredients.
Wine or Champagne
For a treat at lunch or dinner time, serve your quiche with a light white wine, a fruity rose, or a fun sparkling wine, prosecco or champagne.
