Easy to adapt. Put 8oz of whipping cream & a little milk. This recipe definitely makes 2 9-inch deep dish quiches!

This seemed rather bland to me, but my husband liked it. I added some hot sauce to my slice, but now that I think about it, salsa might be really good with it! Wish I had tried that :)

OMG! This was delicious. I added three diced potatoes and one diced carrot. I double the mushroom, and used a bag of fresh baby spinach. Some of the reviews said it was a little watery so I kept to the measurement and used 1-3/4 cups of half and half. It made four quiches. I am going to freeze some for thanksgiving. Great recipe, thanks.

This was great. I made it crustless for my GF friends. I used one onion, one head of broccoli, one green pepper and one red pepper. I used a big bunch of spinach and sauteed it all up in the 2T of butter. I tried to sweat the veggies as much as possible to get rid of the liquid. I used 1 1/2 cups of whole milk and added a bit extra salt. It was delicious. Thanks!!

Delicious! I agree with some of the other reviews, that it is a little watery. I will try cutting down the milk next time. But I will definitely make it again and soon!!!

This is a very tasty quiche. I made this last night and my pickiest eater even liked it. The only thing was it came out a little watery so I will reduce the amount of milk used in this recipe to a 1-1/4 cup instead of 1-3/4 cup but other than that, it was perfect.

I've made this recipe several times since trying it about six months ago. Absolutely delicious...I've also added some cauliflower. So easy to adapt this recipe to whatever veggies your family likes....

very good, try using cubed toast instead of pie crust and let set overnight in fridge to soak up liquid. I used 9 x 12 baking pan and added one extra cup of shredded cheese and bacon. yummy

Very yummy! I added a little bit of cooked ham along with all the veggies and it turned out great! My husband loved it, too, and he isn't the biggest fan of eggs.

I loved this. My husband would hate it, he wouldn't even taste it(meat& potato guy).A little bacon for flavor would give more flavor. I substituted egg beaters for half the eggs and omitted mushrooms.
