To break even, the Spanish Club needs to cover the cost of making the quiches.
The cost of making each quiche is $30 + $0.50 = $<<30+0.50=30.50>>30.50.
To find the number of quiches that need to be sold to break even, divide the total cost by the selling price per quiche: $30.50 / $2 = <<30.50/2=15.25>>15.25 quiches.
Since the Spanish Club cannot sell a fraction of a quiche, they will need to sell at least 16 quiches to break even.
Therefore, the correct answer is not given in the options.
