     I make this all the time now. Got the recipe on Recipezaar website. Only that site uses only egg whites which is much better for cholesterol count and only 4 tbl of parmesan instead of the cheddar. I skip the mustard, but add a bunch of baby bella sliced mushrooms and it's great for breakfast - 1/25/09

     I used ricotta cheese in place of the cottage cheese and it was delish! We also added some mushroom as another member recommended. This will be added to our regular rotation! Thanks! - 4/24/09

     used 1 whole egg then egg whites (could also use egg sub to lower the cholesterol and fat), reduced fat cheese, used one shallot instead of onions, no mustard and added mushrooms I cooked in the pan as well, and a pinch of cayenne instead of pepper. Zucchini next :) - 1/30/12

     Recipe looks great. Dr. said no more carbs for me. Must make protein and veggie meals only. Thanks for the help. - 11/20/11

     I thought it was great, the kids weren't convinced. - 9/3/11

     I love this. I just made it. Split it up into 2 pie tins and used malawach on the bottom for crust. For this works really well for me that it is higher in protein too. - 3/30/11

     I used 50% reduced fat cheddar.
    Delicious!! - 10/13/10

     Very, very good!! I made this quiche for a church pot luck - it was gone in a flash and everyone kept asking for the recipe!!! We were invited for dinner to friends house afterwards and were asked to bring the quiche!!!!!!! - 9/7/09

     Egg whites instead of whole eggs - beat whites into soft peaks and fold in. Add a whole grain such as cooked oat groats. Add (drained) pinto or great northern beans. Add parsley. Add seasonal vegies (eg asparagus or peas). Dino kale instead of spinach. Skip the cheeses. - 5/29/09

     I love spinach quiches, and this sounds like a good one. Also-- altho I hate to change a recipe before I try it, I suppose I could exchange some grated, drained zucchini for half the spinach. Spinach is very high in Vit K -- a no-no for DH right now because of a medication. It's worth a try. - 5/29/09

     Very good! I used quark which is a German version of cottage cheese without the lumps, similar to ricotta. I also added a pinch of nutmeg. The leftovers will make good take-along lunches - maybe I'll even have some for breakfast! - 5/17/09
  • GRFCORGIS

  • MAKERSGIRL
     Sounds great. I make something like this but I use feta, black olives and oregano on it. It is super either way. Good Job!. - 5/11/09

     Loved it! I splashed a bit of green tabasco on my serving (and it really didn't even need THAT to be YUMMY!) - 10/4/08
