Delicious!! Quick and easy, too. I used thyme, chives, and basil from my garden for the fresh herbs. Also, I used half red and half green bell pepper, and added in some red onion, tomato, and fresh mushrooms. I was out of colby/jack cheese so I used sharp cheddar instead. I baked this in a 9" glass pie plate for 30 mins. at 325 degrees. This didn't serve 8, as I ate half and my husband ate the other half. Yum! I served this topped with sour cream and salsa. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe...it is definitely a keeper!! *Made for 2009 Adopt A Tag*Reply

Saw the previous review and prepared with additional tiny cubed potato and slivered shallott, saureed in a tad of bueer and olive oil befor adding to the egg mixture. Baked at 350 for 34 minutes, in a quiche baker, and allowed to sit about 5 minutes before serving. It only required a little salt, Fresh herbs not in season, but will use them next time. Thanks for posting.Reply

I made this based on Chef#724631's recommendation for the Top Favorites of 2008 Game. Excellent, convenient,versatile and no carbs! The four of us easily ate all of this up. Mine was done in about 25 minutes, but I did use a glass pie dish. Served ours with oranges. Thanks PainterCook for posting.Reply
