Wow, this quiche was fantastic! My husband, who generally does not like quiche, says it is the best he has ever tasted. I guess "real men" really do eat quiche. It was great; especially with the parmesan cheese -- I don't think the cheddar would have been as good. This recipe was reviewed for PAC 2010.

My family and I enjoyed this quiche but we think it would have been even better with cheddar cheese mixed in. We only used the parmesan that the recipe called for. Made for New Kids on the Block 2009.
