    Changed some of the veggies used for personal preference. Not sure what went wrong but it came out with a layer of liquid in the bottom of the pan. This needs to be served as part of a larger meal; it is not enough to be one which a quiche really should be.

    My husband and I thought we would try this recipe. it didn't turn out as well as we had hoped(even after cooking it for an extended time). Sadly our dish came out very wartery. We won't be making it again.

    This is a nice little dish. Works for breakfast or dinner. No it's not a traditional quiche--no crust and quiche generally uses 3 eggs.

    I thought this was pretty good and healthy. I used peas a box of frozen spinach onion and a couple of diced potatoes (cooked). Quite tastey! Will definetly use this idea again and mix up the vegies some more. Fed our family of 5 but no extras.

I omitted the bell peppers and used vegetables from a package of "Organic Foursome" medley from Trader Joes (peas green beans carrots corn). I also used a 9 inch pie pan - Read more ...

    This was delicious. It made for a nice light meal. My only complaint is that the main ingredient for this quiche is cottage cheese and not eggs. But it was still very good.

    I made this recipe exactly the way it is listed. It was very delicious! I made it for my dad's senior citizen Christmas party and they devoured it! It's quick and delicious - and it looks pretty too!

    Mmmm...I used what I had on hand which was diced potatoes diced carrots frozen peas chopped onion and cooked seasoned chopped chicken. Mixed that with the cottage cheese and egg whites and since I did not have mozzarella I topped with 3 Kraft Singles slices and grated parmesan the last 15 minutes or so of - Read more ...

    This quiche is delicious! (I had doubts about the cottage cheese). I did not add the vegis listed, but used spinach, mushrooms and white onions to go along with the ham. Very good!
