It's easiest if you form it into a round disc rather than a ball as it'll defrost quicker that way and it should be wrapped in foil or a freezer bag prior to freezing. I will add this note to the recipe. Thanks again for your lovely comment!

And thank you for linking it here! <br />I haven't frozen the pastry before but I'm sure it'll be fine. I will give it a go & report back! Thanks again!

I made a few little changes, I added bacon (which I cooked with the leeks) and used half milk/half cream and added 4 eggs instead of 3 (I wanted to use up some eggs). I added a mix of Cheddar and parmesan cheeses and decorated the top with mini tomatoes (as I have too many and needed to use them up). I will post a photo on my blog with a link to your recipe to share it around:)) I will certainly be making this again. The best part was the pastry. I made it several hours before hand (in the food processor) and it couldn't have been easier. <br /><br />I was wondering if you could made and freeze the pastry (in a ball) and defrost in the fridge and use when needed? That would be perfect for busy nights.

I guess you could just use some onions instead of the leeks or something like broccoli. Don't blame you about not wanting to go shopping too often! :-) Thank you so much for commenting on my blog!

I shop once a week, which isn't tricky now that there is only two us ( kids are all grown up). I spend more if I go to often and I'm really far to lazy anyway:)). Love you blog.
