I used Egg Beaters with onion & peppers & half& half. I added a little bacon bits with the ham & spiced it up with red pepper flakes, salt & pepper, garlic powder & a pinch of Turmeric. On the top I sprinkled shredded Swiss cheese.
Eggs weren’t cooked, crust was raw, it had way too much liquid to cook and set. It was the worst quiche recipe we’ve tried. Total .
I precooked the crust according to package directions and followed another reviewers advice about moving my oven rack down. It was yummy!!!
I made it but with 5 organic eggs. Loved the recipe and knowing how healthy it is!
Made this 2 days ago for Brunch. I used cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella cheese and regular milk instead of FFBT evaporated milk. Oh, and I made my own pastry crust. It was absolutely DELICIOUS!!
Loved this quiche. It is a “heavier” quiche with the meat and the evaporated milk.
I used 4 eggs as recommended by others (didn’t have egg substitute), chopped up some leftover cooked broccoli, used light mozzarella, and added a little cheddar. Nice flavor. Only issue was that I used a deep dish pie crust (all I had on hand) so it was thinner than I would have liked, but no fault with the recipe as written.
Loved this recipe! I can’t wait to make this again! I used four eggs as other suggested & added some diced zucchini to the green onions. I used a frozen but thawed crust- it did not get quite done in the middle. Next time I will pre-bake the crust a little and brush the crust with egg to help brown it. Mainly, I do not believe 325 deg is hot baking temp for quiche. I followed directions but then baked an additional 20 min at 400 deg. Other quiche recipes bake at 375-400 degrees, so next time I will bake it from the beginning in that range. I’m so happy to have found a quiche recipe that doesn’t use heavy cream. Thanks Becky!
I used 4 eggs instead of the egg substitute. My family loved it, even the picky eaters. It was very flavorful!
I substituted 4 eggs for the egg substitute, 6 pieces of largely chopped bacon for the ham, cheddar cheese for the mozzerella about 1/2 cup milk for the condensed milk. I also made a homemade pie crust. It looks wonderful. I omitted cooking the onions in oil; I cooked them in water in the microwave. I did not layer the ingredients, I just mixed them all together and put them in the pan.
Really delicious. I ended up using an egg white only substitute, and though it was a little moist for the pie crust it was very delicious. Will definitely be making it again
Delicious! This was as good as a restaurant quiche and much better for you. I only used half the ham because 1/2 pound seemed to much and I used four eggs instead of the egg substitute because this was for my family and I prefer not to use ‘diet’ stuff instead of real. Next time I’ll add a little more scallions because I love their flavor but this was so good!
Delicious alternative to the original unhealthy recipes! I took it one step furthur and make my own ‘healthier’ crust: 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour (OR 1/2 cup pastry flour and 1/2 cup whole wheat all purpose flour) 1/4 tsp Kosher salt 1/4 cup water 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil Mix together until just blended. Press into pie plate with fingers until an even layer is formed.
