I really enjoyed this dish. I accidentally bought mozzarella instead of monterey jack, so I used 2 cups of cheddar and 1 cup mozzarella. Still tasted great! Also, I guess my deep dish pie crusts weren't very deep because I was able to get 2 quiches out of the filling. No complaints here! Thanks so much! I think I will use this as my new dish when I take meals to new moms!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I AM A MARRIED MOTHER OF 3. COOKING IS A PASSION OF MINE. FINE FOOD MARKETS AND GROCERY STORES ARE MY "HANG OUTS". I LOVE THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO END IN LEARNING. I ENJOY THE WHOLE PROCESS OF COOKING, FROM FINDING A NEW RECIPE, GROCERY SHOPPING, EXPERIMENTING -- RIGHT TO THE DINNER TABLE. MY FAMILY APPRECIATES THE EFFORT I PUT INTO MEALS WHICH IS A WONDERFUL REWARD. ~NO PICKY EATERS HERE~ MY CHILDREN'S MINDS ARE OPEN TO ALL TYPES OF FOOD (WHEN IN MEXICO MY YOUNGEST SON ORDERED QUAIL AT A RESTAURANT AND LOVED IT).
