Hint: use the Sargento Parmesan/Romano shredded cheese, NOT grated parmesan cheese. Also, use the 2.8 oz. bag of Oscar Mayer bacon PIECES (available near bacon bits). Finally, to make it easier, Ore Ida makes frozen chopped onion (makes everything go quicker to not have to chop onions). Hope this makes it easier and tastier!!

This was awesome!! I added ham cubes and put 2.5 ounces mozzerella and 2.5 ounces swiss cheese. My kids loved it so much they asked if we could have it again tonight!!

This was a very very easy quiche to make, I was a virgin quiche baker (lol) and it came out FAB!!! I will definitely add this to my rotation of recipes. I added sauteed fresh mushrooms and green peppers. I used minced onions that I rehydrated since I didn't have an onion on hand and I used an Italian cheese blend. I followed all the other posts suggestions as well. I would like to note, though: place foil around the edges of your quiche when you bake it so the crusts don't overbake!!! Make this...it is simple and yummy!!! :)Thanks to the originator!
