Good recipe, good idea. Incidentally, the toppings work well on a good bread, too, if you don't have time to make a crust. A new twist on grilled cheese sandwiches!

Thanks to M. Fay for a wonderful recipe, which is even better knowing that it has survived for so many generations! A real classic!

I found this to be quite a charming recipe--easy to make with impressive results. Since the phyllo tart shells are not available in my area, I took phyllo dough and pressed it around the cups of a muffin pan, then filled the cups with the mixture. Although the recipe lends itself well to chanterelle mushrooms, it can be modified easily, e.g. by substituting spinach for the mushrooms. Any quiche ingredients would work. I find that this particular recipe tastes best by increasing the garlic, onions, cream cheese and Swiss cheese a bit, and I add an extra egg. This dish is also quite suitable for brunch.
