This was delish!!! I had never made quiche before and my husband actually liked it. I made it with caramelized onions, ham, smoked Gruyere cheese, and spinach. LOVED this recipe!! Making it for work tomorrow.
This is a great basic recipe. I made mine with butternut squash, caramelized onions, and goat cheese... The proportions and timing were perfect.
This was delicious. Didn't change anything and made the basic one. Only problem: unrolling the piecrust. It fell apart and I had to press it together again. Next time I'll probably use those already unrolled!
First time making this and it needs a few tweaks. First, too oniony. Cut onion in half. Also 8 ounce of grated cheese is too much, cut by 1/3 or more. Added more parsley for a better color distribution which was appropriate. Maybe next time it will be more spongy and I will be able to taste the eggs. Needs the saltiness of sausage or ham. Follow directions by putting on a baking sheet, since the egg did spill over and make a mess..luckily it was easy clean up since caught by the sheet.
Thanks, Anne! We actually ended up freezing them for about a week or two and then preheated the oven to 350ish and put them in the oven for about 30 mins. They were delicious!
Yes! I usualy bake two at a time and freeze one for another meal. Heat in the microwave.
This is the only quiche I have had success with. It's simple to make, has great flavor. I add ham to it. I serve it with a salad and everyone loves it! It's a winner.
This is the best recipe for quiche that I've come across. We add ham, and it gives it a much-needed saltiness. Make sure if you add ham that you cook it in a deep-dish pie dish - otherwise, it'll spill out onto the bottom of your oven.
I slim quiche down for everyday fare by using 4 large eggs and 1C skim milk, and 1C lo-fat cheese. Another good add-in is drained diced tomatoes - revs it up for something different.
This is my go-to recipe for quiche. I've served it at numerous brunches to much acclaim. The gruyere and nutmeg produce a highly flavorful, decadent quiche. Glad it made the magazine's top 20 of '09.
Made in Apr '09. Sadly, although I really liked this quiche (I like quiches in general), my daughter thought it was "too cheesy" and my husband thought it was too fattening. Oh well, can't please everyone all the time. Nothing wrong with the recipe though.
