Very easy to make and tastes great! Every friend or family member I've made this for loved it! I am not a fan of breakfast food but there is something very comforting about this casserole.

We really enjoyed this! I don't believe in discarding fresh herbs though, so I chopped up a big garlic clove, 1/4 tsp. of ground thyme, and threw it in the egg mixture. (I didn't have any fresh thyme, but would've used it if I had it. Didn't add the nutmeg--not a fan. Boiled the potatoes for 4 minutes before taking them out. With all the cheese and bacon, I decreased the salt by 1/2 tsp., and I'm glad I did.

Some reviewers obviously don't know the origins of this combo - leek & potato - they are a Welsh classic! This is like a thick eggy version of L&P soup with bacon, which is awesome. I would not think of it as a quiche. Due to bad planning, we had to sub out the half-and-half for 0% sour cream, but we loved it. No risk of a thin mixture after 55 minute bake with SC, and a natural match to potatoes. Next time I would let the potatoes simmer for 3-4 minutes, to let the flavours of garlic & thyme seep in better, and to sofen the potatoes more. Use actual Jarlsberg, the flavour is distinct.

The only reason I didn't give this dish five stars is the name is misleading. Casserole made me think more potato-ish sidedish, but it was really a crustless quiche, which did not go well with the salmon we had. The six eggs sounded like a lot.. I should've read the reviews beforehand.

As a quiche itself, however, it was really good... great breakfast.

I thought this recipe was terrific! Delicious, hearty, flavorful. I substituted whole milk for the cream and cheddar for the swiss; it still turned out great! However, it took me much longer than 20 minutes to prepare. I have found the same thing with most of these Food Network recipes!

This sounds much better than it tasted, which surprised me because I love eggs in any form, quiche type dishes especially. But it just was not my cup of tea. Will not make it again

Dice the potatoes nice and small so that they cook through in the oven. I also used regular old Swiss cheese, as I didn't want to purchase $14 worth of Jarls for this recipe.

This was good enough for second helpings. I would eat it for breakfast, brunch or in this case, dinner.

The potatoes do not integrate with this dish, which is really a quiche. I caught my guests separating the potatoes from the rest of the dish. Actually, this is okay cold - maybe for breakfast/brunch. But it was a disappointing sidedish at dinner.
