My huband wanted me to make a quiche. He was down with a cold and felt terrible, so I decided to treat him to this recipe. I added a tad more broccoli and a little more ham. With the extra ham, I should have reduced the salt. Actually, everything that could go wrong did go wrong (my fault for not reading the entire instructions). In spite of cooking it 100 degrees hotter than the instructions - it still came out great. My husband had two servings, he liked it so much!! This will be a keeper in our house.

I made this for Sunday morning brunch with some friends. Everyone loved it and my only regret was not making a double batch! Definitely a keeper!

Excellent! Even my husband, who wasn't too excited about quiche loved it.
