My husband did not even know what quiche was but my mother made a bad version of quiche when I was a child. I wanted some comfort food so I found this recipe in hopes I would find a better version then the one I used to have as a child. My whole family loves this dish! I made it with regular bacon for me and my son and one with turkey bacon for my husband they both tasted great. They both are always asking for this dish. Thank you Paula this dish is great fast and easy

Hi Kim, Heavy cream is also known as whipping cream, and can be found in your local grocery store.

This may sound silly, but I just moved out on my own so cooking is new to me and I am curious what exactly is heavy cream?? I LOVE spinach and I am itching to make this recipe, but my only concern is that I'm not sure what heavy cream is. I would appreciate any feedback!!
Thank you ![]()

i cookked this in a convection oven. the top browned beautifully, but i took it out too soon. i let it cool on the table, and cut into it at dinnertime. it was still liquid in the middle! i put it in the microwave for 10 minutes, and voila! it was delicious. the only thing i did different, was added superfine chopped onion that i softened in a frying pan. yummy.

Do I need to bake the crust a little before filling with egg mixture? The last time a made a quiche it didn't get done on the bottom of the crust???? By Anonymous on August 26, 2010 What is your answer to this question? I had this same problem.

This was easy and DELICIOUS. I've made it twice now and everyone (even non-quiche lovers) LOVE it. Looks beautiful, too!

OH MY GOD!!! Awsome quiche!!! I've always just bought the Pour-a-Quiche thinking it was as good as you could get.... well, I was soooo wrong! I just pulled the 1st one out of the oven, let it cool and couldn't believe my mouth!!!! This quiche is soooo good and my husband, never having had a quiche, loves it just as much as I do!!! You've made another hit in our kitchen!!! Thanks so much!!!

I have tried several quiche lorraine recipes and this was, by far, the best ever. It was light and fluffy with the perfect about of cheese. I am so pleased.

This was my first time to ever make quiche. It sounded to good, I figured it was worth a try. I must say, it was the best quiche I ever ate in my life. It turned out perfect. I did add a little nutmeg to the eggs and half and half. It was so good, I didn't share it with anyone. I ate the whole pie. Thanks for this recipe

This recipe is a super winner. I served it for lunch at the cabin and my guests couldn't quit raving and how wonderful it tasted. I used fresh spinach from my garden and added onion that I sauted with the bacon. Next time I plan to add green, red, and yellow peppers from my garden. Enjoy your recipes as they are remindful of my youth and "good" home cooking.

Yummy, yummy, yummy! This is also a great recipe to alter. I tried it replacing the bacon with seasoned ground turkey and the spinach with diced onions & peppers (two onions, 1 yellow, 1 orange, and one red pepper). I found that I didn't need all the meat mixture, but it was yummy too. Thinking of trying it with italian sausage, tomatoes, basil . . . . .
