I had my doubts about this one... but being snowed-in, having few ingredients left in my cabinets, I decided to give this a try. What a surprise! A light, lovely quiche that even my "real men" ate without compunction! Polished it off in no time. I've gotten experimental with this since that time. Yesterday I made this, and substituted Manhattan clam chowder for the New England, and spiked it with a little salsa for kick. That, too was just great. Thanks, Ambassadress, for an easy, delicious mealtime fix!
