This was the first quiche I've ever made and I will definitely make it again! Easy and delicious. I thought the swiss cheese would be too overpowering, but it wasn't. I think the cottage cheese really made this quiche so tasty. Thanks for a great recipe NurseDi! -
This recipe was just a guideline so it probably explains why my cook time was over an hour rather than 25 minutes. Instead of packaged hash browns I used freshly grated potatoes because I prefer to use fresh ingredients. I also added some onions and chives. I baked it in a stone pie pan, so that might explain the longer cook time too. -
There is another family we get together with most weekends. We generally say "Well, what do you have to cook?" to determine our menu. I had a TON of eggs so I decided to make quiches. I looked in the freezer and found 1/4 of a bag of hashbrowns so I decided to go with that. I used fat free cottage cheese, chopped swiss cheese instead of shredded, and about 3 slices of crumbled turkey bacon for just a light taste and crunch. This makes a very dense quiche. I am not a fan of cottage cheese normally, and seeing the lumps in the batter concerned me a bit, but it all melted together well. We enjoyed this. -
