No meat needed. I doubled the onion and used egg substitute, skim milk and reduced fat swiss cheese slices. I layered the cheese on the bottom before adding the onion. It was fabulous. Great as a main dish or as a side.

Have made this as-is, and thought it was pretty tasty. This go-'round I split the recipe between two deep-dish pie shells (doubling only the egg-cheese-salt mixture), used sweet onions (vidalia), and added spinach. Great as a base-recipe, or word-for-word.

I added some different things, I have used this recipe 2 times and it was really good both. Try adding ham and a little cheddar cheese, or mushrooms and peppers.

I had the best of intentions to make this recipe as written, but made a lucky error. I accidently forgot the pastry shell at the store and was too lazy to go back. I happened to have some frozen phyllo dough sheets on hand and made this like a breakfast lasagna, layering sheets of phyllo dough between layers of the egg mixture. To make it more dinner-appropriate I added some grilled shimp into the mix.

This recipe was great. I had never made a quiche before & we had 4 hungry guys staying with us. For the pie crust I used a pate brisee which was in my freezer, leftover from something. I didn't have swiss, so I used a fiesta blend cheese instead. I cooked 1 pound of bacon & crumbled it into the eggs. The recipe turned out fantastic! The guys loved it & pretty much ate the whole thing.

I just made this quiche for the second time, and both times it has been DELICIOUS. I added pre-cooked, cubed ham and I don't know if I would have liked it as much without it. The flavor of the ham just complements the onion and the swiss cheese so well. I also used fat free half & half and probably more than the recommended 2 cups of swiss (I just shredded a whole bar of the cheese). We had it for dinner and it was so good that 4 adults and one 2-year-old finished the entire thing!!! The flavor is so great, and EVERYONE I made this for (it was for a large family get-together last time) gave me rave reviews. This time it didn't have the dryness(not sure if I'm explaining this right) I would have liked (although the inserted knife did come out clean), but it was probably my fault because I was in a hurry for dinner to be ready and didn't let it stand for 10 minutes like the recipe says. Try it, you'll love it!!

I add bacon to this one, but I love it. I think the it call for to much onion though, so I use less.

This is absolutely fabulous, but I made a LOT of changes because I like veggies. Gotta sneak them into the kids' diet somehow! Here's what I did: 3T butter 1 pre-made pie crust (I don't know what a pastry shell is?) 1/2 onion, chopped (it was a big one) 8oz shredded swiss (not sure how many cups) 1T flour 8 eggs 1 1/2 cups half and half 1/4 t salt 1 1/2 cups chopped ham 1 c chopped coarse mushrooms 1 c shredded fresh spinach I followed the directions basically... pie crust, I sauteed the mushrooms with the onions and put them on the crust, then the ham, then the spinach, then the cheese, and because of all of the veggies and other things I had to make a lot more of the egg mixture. I had a 9.5 inch pie pan. I made it for breakfast tomorrow, but my son had a small piece after school for snack, and said it was awesome - it turned out really, really yummy. Next time, because mine was so thick, I would probably bake it longer at a lower temperature. In order for the egg mixture to be done, it took awhile to bake and the top is pretty brown. Overall fabulous!

excellent. Delicious! Hubby and baby ate it up. I didnt use the flour (no need?) and I added chopped up pre-cooked sausage and frozen broccoli (thawed before adding) as additions. The swiss cheese was really great.

This was really easy and delicious! I'm not even that big of a quiche fan, and I loved it. I'll definitely make this again. I sprinkled some cracked pepper over the top, and next time I might add a dash of tabasco.
