This variety of the French quiche is suitable for vegetarians, as it utilizes a variety of fresh vegetables such as zucchini, tomatoes, onions, or bell peppers. The choice of vegetables is left to the cooks, but tomatoes are usually a staple of quiche Provençale.

The vegetables are combined with cheese, eggs, and seasonings such as Herbes de Provence. A pastry shell is then filled with this savory combination and baked until puffy and browned, when it is ready to be consumed.
