Very good Verona! I love quiche and this was great! I added minced onion plus onion and garlic powders and used fresh shrimp in lieu of the canned. Served this with a yummy Arugala salad. Thanks so much! Read More

The first time I made this I followed the recipe exactly and decided that I didn't like the nutmeg nor did I like the texture and taste of the crab and shrimp. Now I use imitation crabmeat which does not disintegrate and fresh chopped shrimp as the flavor is so much better. I must admit I have never made it with fresh crabmeat which I'm guessing would be even better. Thanks! Read More

Unless I am intrepreting this recipe wrong there is no way all those ingredients are going to fit in one pie! I made one pie by cutting the half and half to one cup. I used fresh cooked shrimp and 2 cups of shredded cheddar and some powdered onion and garlic. It baked one hour at 350. It was O.K. Read More

The quiche took three hours to cook! I followed the recipe to the letter. Probably too much cream and not enough eggs. I would suggest 1.5 cups of cream and 5 eggs.. Read More

I used fresh crabmeat and cooked shrimp - had to omit the bacon b/c of Lent. I didn't think the flavor tasted that great - maybe the bacon is what makes it.??? Read More

I modified this quite a bit: I used frozen shrimp cream 2 eggs and chopped jack cheese. I added a pinch of chili pepper black pepper and sea salt. Mixed. Made hash browns from scratch with 3 small russet potatoes sliced thin by hand 2 TBSP minced onion and cooked stove top in peanut oil. Pressed potatoes into bottom of loaf pan. Poured mixture on top. Placed remaining cheese on top. Baked in toaster oven @375 for 45 minutes. Bad photo quality above though you get the idea: it came out great. My wife loves it. That makes the work worth while. I hope this can be of some use to you at the least some of it. Do let me know what you think. Read More
