    I've been making this quiche recipe for several years now. I just use the basic recipe then change up the fillings as the mood strikes. It always turns out awesome. One word of warning though. I used super fresh (that morning fresh farm eggs. The quiche rose so high that it blew off the outter crust. LOL Tasted awesome though.

    I can cook well, but I have never made quiche. Yet this is the best quiche I've ever tasted...ever! That includes bakery, grocery, gourmet,,, I pre-baked my crust for about 7 minutes and sauteed scallions, onions, fresh mushrooms, and frozen spinach in some coconut oil. I added salt, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, a teaspoon of vinegar, and a teaspoon of sugar to the egg mixture as I mixed in my sauteed vegetables. I love that this recipe allows you to add whatever you want to personalize it. This is practically fool proof.

    This is my "go to" recipe for quiche. It's a great foundation for getting creative and adding your own ingredients. I have made it exactly as written,,,it is rich and wonderful. I have also substituted milk for the half and half and it is nearly as good, (if I hadn't made the full fat version first, I would have never missed the extra richness, Couple of comments...the crust is better when you pre-bake it for a few minutes. Also, you will have too much filling to fit in a standard 9 inch crust, especially if you add extra stuff like ham, (my fave, chicken or extra veggies. You will definitely need to use a larger pan/crust OR use the 9 inch and make 2 smaller pies. I have done this and frozen the 2nd pie after baking. The 2nd was a little skimpy, but yummy, so my family didn't really care! It was nice having it in the freezer for a quick school-day breakfast.

    I have always "wanted" to make quiche but thought it would be too difficult..I have not had luck in the past making my own pastry (too dry, too hard etc..This recipe looked pretty easy and I decided to give it a try..Two things I did wrong by oversight was forgetting to add the onions & buying two regular pie crusts instead of one deep dish..All was fine..I prebaked the pie crust for 4 minutes and had enough filling to fill both perfectly..I reduced the baking time since I was only going to cook one regular size as opposed to deep dish...I am happy to say I was thrilled with the outcome..I will be adding this to my menu...Quiche and a nice soup and salad will be a hit..I encourage anyone to try this recipe, you will not be disappointed..And do follow the recipe as written for the 1st time..You can always adjust it down the road if you so choose.

    My first attempt at quiche and i used this recipe as a guideline basically. I always like to make recipes mine in some way. I used greek yogurt instead of mayo, and half cup of half and half and half a cup of nonfat milk. I also used fresh spinach and added green peppers since i had some on hand. The Quiche turned out awesome! Next time i will try preheating crust like some others suggested.

    I compared reviews on quiches and overwhelmingly this one stood out! it was a hit, everyone wanted the recipe! I followed everyone's directions to pre-toast the crust and I used canned milk, mixed with low fat milk. I also added turkey. It was amazing! Thanks food network!

    This was the first time I've made quiche, so wanted an easy but good recipe. This is a keeper! I made it for Christmas brunch and my brother-in-law, who's a chef, loved it, as did everybody else. The texture was creamy and light, absolutely delicious. I used frozen shiitake mushrooms (well drained instead of spinach and Swiss. I followed other reviewers suggestions and used a deep dish pie shell and preheated it for 7 - 10 minutes to avoid a soggy crust. Try this, you won't be disappointed.

    Great go-to recipe! I needed a quick and easy recipe for a recent shower as we were having brunch. I was able to whip this up in about 10 min the morning of!! I just used what I ingredients I already had in the frig and made two separate dishes: one I substituted broccoli for the frozen spinach and the other I used fresh spinach and mozzarella. Not a single bite was left :- and I received dozens of compliments! Would definitely recommend and will definitely be using this gem from now on.
