This is delicious! It will also be my base for all my quiches from now on. I may also try it without the crust for lower carbs. I added sauteed mushrooms and some chopped ham. Thanks for a winner.

This quiche is amazing! It was so fast and easy to put together and the taste is wonderful. I used a Mexican cheese blend. The eggs were so moist and fluffy it was almost like a souffle in texture. I will be making this again and again! We added Pace Picante sauce on top. Yum! This quiche is awesome as is, but I could also see it would be a great base for any kind of add-in you might want--like bacon or green onions, chopped tomatoes, etc. Thanks for a keeper Jaymee.

This was very easy to put together and made a nice a nice brunch dish. I made it with cheddar cheese. I did not use a crust, but poured in directly into a pan sprayed with cooking spray. (I rarely use crust, just a personal thing.) Thanks for sharing your recipe Jaymee.
