Mmmm! I made this for a brunch at work and it was great! I only used 1/2 cup of milk because I was worried about it being too watery. I also used broccoli instead of spinach. I will definitely make it again!

This is a great recipe! Comments like the best quiche they have ever tasted were many. I did a few adjustments to the recipe: Used only 1/2 cup skim milk, substituted low fat miracle whip and added an extra egg and it turned out great. Will definetly serve this again.
