    These are great. I made them in muffin tins so they were convenient while traveling. I used about 1/3 c per muffin and baked them for about 28 minutes. Next time I'll spray the paper liners as they tended to stick. - 3/6/10

    I like this recipe better than frittatas, as the process of putting the frittata under the broiler changes the flavor of the dish. Add a little nutmeg to this recipe and it is as good as any quiche recipe with crust and cream. Mine: asparagus, Buche de Chevre, & Nicoise olives - Yum! - 6/16/10

    Great recipe. Loved it. Made the mistake of using a cup 2% milk without thickening it and there was some moisture left after cooking it for 15 min longer. Hubby still loved it, even suggested making it in muffin cups for breakfast on the run thru the week. Will do this tomorrow per recipe. - 9/12/09

    I love eggs and am always tryin to find new ways to eat them. I hadn't thought of quiche since I've moved to fewer carbs because of the crust. - 11/23/08

    Very easy, and very delicious! I didn't have cottage cheese on hand, so I used skim milk with a little flour as a thickener. Next time I'll use the cottage cheese, but it came out GREAT even without it!!! Yum!!! - 5/31/08

    Last night I visited a friend in the hospital. She goes home today and has to restrict her carbs to 4 per meal, which sounds impossible to me. However, this sounds really good, and I plan to make it for her. - 5/7/10

    Will have to try this. Most likely will use eggs instead of egg substitute as that is not something I keep on hand. Will recalculate the calories accordingly. - 6/13/20

    What a great idea! I make pizza crust w.cauliflower and eggs,plus seasonings. Why not add cottage cheese to this and than all the veggies, and bake in mini cupcake pans for tiny bite size treats to go with my salads? Oh My, what a great recipe! YUM! - 7/13/19
