This was SO good, it's now our forever Christmas-morning recipe!

Excellent!! I used left over sliced variety of cheeses from a cracker tray from the previous nights party. It was delicious. I also added extra egg because I had deep dish pie crust. I am making it again this weekend!

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this recipe. It's been my favorite for years! It's pretty much foolproof. I've used lots of different cheeses and filling ingredients. We sometimes have 1/2 & 1/2 in the house, but mostly I just use 1% milk. The recipe perfectly fills my standard Pyrex pie plate. When I use my larger pie plates, I make 1 1/2 times the egg mixture. Great recipe! Thanks!

Go-to quiche recipe. Sometimes we add broccoli. Or instead of bacon, do ham. Such a delicious and easy dish. Picky husband says it's the best quiche he's ever had. The tot even eats it!
