Crustless Quiche

Cindy Lynn's Note:

This is the recipe that inspired me to purchase a Corning Ware quiche dish, not that it is an absolute requirement. A girlfriend from college (she and I were both returning adult students) gave me this recipe, upon my request, after she'd served it at one of our get-togethers. A crust forms as the quiche is baking. This can be served just about any time.

SUPERB!! I made this tonight for dinner for a change, DD frowned at it and asked for seconds :-) Instead of swiss cheese I just used all mild cheddar, and a green onion too. Thanks for a good recipe!

This quiche is a lovely dish to serve to guests. I made the dish following the instructions given, but I did use green onions instead of regular onions. I don't think that altered the taste of the original recipe. The flavor was wonderful and it was very easy to make. I followed your advice, Cindy, and made it in a quiche pan. It turned out so pretty! Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.

This was really great. I used browned ground beef and onions, as well as three eggs. Baking at 425 browned it too quickly; I had to finish baking it at 400. Thank you Cindy!
