I liked this recipe, but can't give it 5 stars because of all the changes I made. I made it into a crustless quiche and baked it in a 13x9 glass dish. I used 6 slices of bacon, 8 eggs, 1-1/2 cups light cream, 1/2 tsp. nutmeg, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. pepper, 2 pgk. (10 oz.)fresh baby spinach, steamed, 2 cups chopped mushrooms, sauteed in 2 Tbsp. bacon grease along with 1 cup onions. I used 1/2 pound of swiss cheese, which amounts to 2-1/4 cups (no cheddar). I saved 1/4 cup of the cheese to sprinkle on top. Mixed all ingredients together, baked at 375 for 35 minutes. I spent 45 minutes on prep time, plus the quiche needs to sit for about 10 minutes when it comes out of the oven. I couldn't see how I could mix raw spinach and raw mushrooms with the liquid, so cooked them lightly, and it worked out great. Sorry for the long review, but making these changes is the only way I will use this recipe again.

This quiche was amazing! I was happy to see the fresh spinach in the ingredients. I used the flaky pie crust recipe from Williams Sonoma's Baking Cookbook. Wondering if it might be a little better if the crust baked a little before adding the egg mixture - but it was still definitely a five star recipe. Thanks Belle and Chron!

My first quiche, and the best I've ever eaten! I took the reviewer's recommendation to use the leftover bacon grease to satuee, which really brought out good flavor. I didn't have a ready-made pie crust, so I made one myself, out of the 'Danish Pastry Apple Bars' recipe. (Just cut the dough ingredients in half, and there's your bottom pie crust! And I took the picture for that recipe there!!) I figured the apple pie crust would be just as delicious as a quiche pie crust, and I couldn't have been more right about that! Turned out FANTASTIC!!

Very good. Eat it for dinner, and then reheat it for breakfast. Makes a good quick meal the second day.

This was a HUGE hit at a potluck this evening. Unfortunately, I was in a rush to prepare something and I didn't read the reviews...YOU MUST CUT DOWN on the ingredients! Mine was oozing everywhere and like a previous review I finally took the quiche out of the oven and dumped a good bit of liquid down the drain. I think next time I will customize the servings to 6 as previously suggested. That being said, this is a phenomenal quiche! Great flavors and it really looked beautiful. It is nice to use fresh spinach and two cheeses. The only substitution I made was vegetarian bacon (Morning Star Farms from Trader Joes) because I was not sure if this potluck would include people who don't eat meat/pork. Also, I did not have any fresh nutmeg on hand, but that flavors were still perfect. One last note, a little tinfoil under the quiche pan will go a long way to keep your oven clean in case you have the same oozy experience.

I have to say that this is one of the best recipes I have tried! I have a crazy schedule and don't have much time. So, I bake this at the beginning of the week and eat it over the rest of the week. It's so good that you never get tired of eating it! THANKS!

My first quiche and its great. As the other reviewers noted, you really don't need all the cream the recipe calls for. I had enough of the mixture to fill two pie shells. To make one quiche, you may want to cut down in some of the ingredients. But great recipe, I will definitely cook this one again.

This is my first quiche, and it was wonderful! However, I could't give the recipe 5 stars because it has some serious flaws that other reviewers have commented on. I didn't read the reviews, and 50 minutes into baking, I poked a hole in the middle and all this cream started spilling out, I ran to the puter, read the reviews, ended up draining the quiche and baking another ten minutes... So, cut back on ingredients some, and definitely reduce the whipping cream by quite a bit. When I drained, about 1/2 cup came out! The taste is excellent, though, love the nutmeg. Will make again, with suggested changes.

This was quite good! Even before I read the other reviews this seemed like a lot of ingredients so I cut back on everything except the seasonings. 3 eggs, 3/4 cup of each cheese, and 1 cup of each veggie, bacon was the same. I too sauteed the mushrooms and onions in a little of the bacon fat. Great combination. Thanks for the recipe Justin!

The quiche was delcious, but as previous reviewers said, the quantity of ingredients the recipe calls for is too much. Also, make the quiche shallow - that will make sure it cooks all the way through

I thought this was the BEST! I have tried lots and lots of quiche receipes looking for the flavor and texture of those I had in France. This comes the closest. For a 9"inch deep dish frozen pie shell, I changed the recipe to 6 instead of 8 and it was perfect. Merci!

I doubled the recipe...left the bacon out of one and added ham to the other. Mine "fit" just fine into two "Mrs. Smiths" deep dish pie crusts and look lovely. It will not "fit" into a Pet-Ritz deep dish pie crust. This will be a regular dish in my household!

This recipe is great! After reading the reviews I did my own modifications for one quiche in a 9" frozen pie crust I used: 2 eggs, 1 and 1/2 cups cheese (1/2 each of swiss and cheddar mixed, and 1/4 each sprinkled on top), 3/4 cups mushrooms, 1/4 cup onions, 3/4 cup light cream, 4 strips bacon and spices as written in recipe. Baked at 375 for 50 minutes and it was perfect.

Tasted pretty good, but not the best quiche I've tasted. The proportions are totally wrong if you're making one quiche, even if it's a deep dish pie crust. If you stick to the recipe exactly as it's written, I would use two regular pie crusts. I think this recipe is good, but not outstanding.

Best quiche ever!! I only had a cup of heavy cream so I used a half cup of milk and it was great. I used a deep dish pie crust and it was still a little too much so I put the rest of it into a ramekin and made a mini crustless quiche along with the other one. That way I could sample before serving! Yum!!
