Beat together eggs, cream (milk or half and half) and garlic salt; pour mixture over cheese; and sprinkle with fresh cracked black pepper.

Arrange thinly sliced tomatoes on top. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until quiche is set in center and lightly browned.

Serve quiche warm or cold, with additional fresh tomatoes, basil and a Balsamic Drizzle.
