I looked through about 10 of my cookbooks for a quiche recipe, and only found one, and it was for Quiche Lorraine (has bacon). So I gave up and found one on the allrecipes site that got good reviews. It was super easy to make. I actually cooked it about 37 minutes instead of the recommended 30. Toby said that it was good, but could use some pizazz, like a different cheese or something. He also said it needed to cook a little longer. I think it’s a good basic recipe that you just need to tweak. And it fell apart when I put it on the plate.
