Best go-to recipe for bits of leftovers!

User: Tim from round rock, TX User Rating:
I make this about once every two or three weeks. We use any and all leftover or small bits of fresh veggies any and all leftover meats. I hit it with freshly ground black pepper and a dusting of cayenne. Be very cafeful with the salt if your leftovers are already seasoned. Make sure you meats and veggies are relatively dry first. I also cook at 325 for slightly longer. MMMmmm...
Great

Easy to make, and taste great. I used the recipe to make the mini's. It's not listed here but you can try different flavors without wasting the whole mix.
SO GOOD!!

This is a fantastic tool for using items in your fridge. Our best combo, bacon, cheddar and scallions. Tastes better than any quiche I have had at any NYC brunch. Nutmeg really makes it!
Easy and Delish

Real Men make Refrigerator PIE! Great solution for leftovers. Make it at night and eat it for breakfast. Works with all kinds of ingredients and nice and easy to do.

Very easy recipe. Love using ham, spinach and cheese (swiss & cheddar). I wasn't as thrilled with the favors of a mushroom and swiss one I tried, but the texture of the quiche is superb.

Having made AB's roast chicken last week, I decided to use some of the leftovers in a refrigerator pie this week. The addition of goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes really brought out the flavor nicely, and it was fast and easy, which is always good on a busy weekend

I made this for dinner last night. We had a couple slices of leftover ham and some swiss cheese, so I just chopped up the ham and grated the cheese and used up the leftovers. The nutmeg in the egg & cream mixture adds a great, subtle flavor. Definitely good enough for a repeat performance and just stupidly easy!
Yum!

I made this for breakfast this morning with the Bacon, Sauteed leeks, and Gruyere cheese. It was delicous! My husband is mildly allergic to dairy and he couldn't eat much of it, but of the little bit he ate, he said it was delicious as well. Too bad he can't have any of the leftovers!
Super easy! Super delicious!

What a wonderful way to change leftovers into a delicious, nutricious meal!!! We use egg substitute and fat-free half and half due to my husband's health, but it's still delicious!

User: Judy from Belmont, CA User Rating:
In my view, quiche is the perfect food since it can be eaten morning, noon or night and not be a fish out of water at any meal. It also makes great leftovers, as a quick minute (or less) in most microwaves will resurrect it to out of the oven warm. I've been stuck on 1 quiche recipe for the last two years and you've just expanded my horizons to improvise a lot more with the non-egg ingredients. Keep up the good work. Love the show. Alton is to food what Bill Nye is to science (heard that before?). Kind regards, Judy
OMG This was a big hit!

I would actually bake for a longer time at 300 because the middle tends to be a little runny. Otherwise, very tasty and easy to improvise on
Easy on-hand entree

User: Justine from Warwick, RI User Rating:
This seemed too basic and easy to be tasty at first read. However, I tried it anyway since I had a pie crust that I didn't have a clue what to do with. I followed the recipe with spinach, canned artichoke hearts, and a Mexican farm cheese which I used in big chunks throughout the pie. It came out nice the very first time I made it, and although it is simplistic in taste, it is also one of those "better the next day" entrees. I loved the base recipe so much that I decided to make it again within a week and added another layer of flavor by slicing fresh tomatoes to bake atop the pie. Delish!!

I used this on Easter and made 2 pies. One was spinach, onion and parmesean and the other was tomato, bacon and leeks. And it's so easy! I used the refrigerated pie crust that Pillsbury has in the dairy section.

This is one recipe that I will be making again (and not just because you get two pie crusts in a pack). This recipe can be made with endless ingredients and with my son having a milk allergy, the ability to modify the recipe to use soy milk and other cow-milk-free products, is extremely important for my wife and I. Thank you Mr. Brown for the education and thank you Food Network for the great programs.
Love the variety!!

I'd never had quiche before and was a little apprehensive. This recipe was fast, easy, and tasty all at once. We made the bacon, leek version. It was awesome...no leftovers at all. I plan on making one of the other options soon to use up the other pie crust that I bought. Another winner from AB.

I prepared this recipe with bacon, cheddar cheese and sun-dried tomatoes. My wife and kids gave a hearty "Mmmm!", "this is awesome!" after taking just one bite. This is a very creamy, smooth and flavorful dish. Very rich. Each bite brought about a fresh combination of flavors.
great!

I ditched the pie crust and used light soymilk instead of milk. When I use 1 percent milk with eggs it comes out too runny but the light soy milk is still creamy and not runny at all. Spinach and parmasan was my choice, and if you sprinkle a little parm on top it comes out with a nice crust.

yes, it's quiche.....one of my favorites is served with chopped smoked turkey (from your deli counter), chopped sundried tomatoes, thyme and fontina. Or skip the tomatoes and thyme and just add dill and monterey jack.......yummmmmmmmmmmm

I cut the recipe in half and used a shallow pie pan; that allowed the filling to cook light and fluffy in just 30 minutes. Filled with bacon, sausage, cheese, chopped onions and tomatos. Better bake 2 though, it goes fast!!
