Create A Quiche

Recipes »  Breakfast  »  Quiches

A recipe to use up those dibs and dabs that fill the fridge. My sister always served a version of this quiche at her Christmas brunch. I always served it at holiday parties.

"I've heard quiche to be a troublesome dish, but this recipe is easy and tastes great. I used chopped jarred roasted red peppers for the veggies. 8 oz of sharp Cheddar & 6 oz of Swiss made for a great cheese choice! Even if it was a bit shy of the 2 cups the recipe called for, the sharpness of the Cheddar made up for that. I was so impressed , I'm on my way to the store for spinich and cheese for a new variation today! I'll keep you all posted on the results. Enjoy!" - EvilBetty98119

  • Simple quiche with mushrooms, red onions, green peppers, and shredded Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese. Followed the recipe but just added 5 eggs to make it more fluffy. The quiche not only was Very Good but also Very Pretty. photo by DallasGurl2012 DallasGurl2012

    Using whole milk, cheddar (it has the highest calories), and pork sausage, the calorie count is 2647 per 9' pie, or 331 per slice(1/8 pie). Just substituting nonfat milk and low or reduced fat cheese puts the count at about 1743 per pie or 218 per slice. The recipe is versatile it would be easy to lower the calories significantly.

    Great recipe, although the nutrition info is way out. 1400mgs of sodium I. 4 eggs, is not correct, and way to many calories.

    4204 calories per serving!? That's enough for 2-1/2 day intake Are you sure?

    Easy to make. Any vegetable or meat bits with corresponding cheese works.

    Hi, i must say this look amazing! Just wondering if the calories per serving is correct?
    4 months, 4 days, 23 hours, 28 minutes ago
    Yum! Pre cooked shell by ten minutes, used half of egg filling and still it took 30 minutes to cook - totally worth it! Sausage links, bacon, jalapeƱos and diced tomatoes

    This has become a staple in our house. I usually do spinach & tomato, but have mixed it up with other veggies and various cheeses. Yum. Thanks!

    Is that really right? Over 4000 cal per serving?

    Super easy and made beautiful breakfasts! Definitely made 2. Pre-bake the crusts and be creative! I added pics of my western with ham, cheddar, onions, and peppers and garlic, spinach, bacon, and mozzarella
