    This recipe needs some serious tweaking. I agree with others that the spices were a little overbearing so they need to be cut down. Definitely cut down on the amount of mushrooms!! When I tried a slice of mine, it was all mushroom and hardly any egg!! I wanted a quiche with mushrooms in it but instead it seemed like more of a mushroom tart because there was just too much mushroom. I also had a problem with the moisture, it says to cook for 2 minutes until the liquid is evaporated but 2 min is not nearly enough time. I cooked mine longer and still had issues with the consistency. It came out as a wet mushy mess. I think I will try it one more time and adjust it a bit.

    I added ricotta as suggested by another user. This was good and would benefit from some spinach or bacon? Yum. That sounds good.
    It was easy to make and I will try it again.
    not too many eggs and I like that. I also like the skim milk.

    Who knew living in Wi was possible without cheese. Love it. Can't have it. The ingredents let me make something for my husband and myself that we can eat together. Thank you. It had enough spices, even without the salt, to make it flavorful. It works great for Lent meal too. Thank you.
