  • “This was delicious!Don’t use more than 3 tablespoons of the blue cheese or it will be too overpowering.This dish was fairly easy, and the taste was worth every minute.Thanks L DJ!”

  • “My DH was less than thrilled when I told him “quiche for dinner”.He ate half of it.Wow was this ever good!The only change I made was garden chives over the onion.Loved the touch of blue cheese!My new “go to” Quiche!Thanks for posting!!”

  • “My dh and I have never been big fans of quiches, however this one has to be the best one ever. I didn’t have half and half so I used whole milk, and I didn’t have blue cheese (which I love) so I just used some cheddar. I alsoused turkey bacon. I can’t wait to try it with the blue cheese next time. Thanks for posting this tasty recipe.”

  • “Delish! Thanks for posting! This one freezes well too. I mixed all the raw ingredients in a lg baggie (after cooking and cooling bacon) sealed the bag, labeled it, placed that baggie in the pie shell, then slipped those into a 2nd lg baggie! Came out beautifully when I defrosted it to use.”

  • “Very nice quiche, simple to make and full of flavor – was a nice presentation for visitors .I did cheat and used a prepared pie crust (I’m terrible @ crust & didn’t want to take a chance of ruining it) Flavors blended nicely for a very grown-up and impressive dish.Thanks LDJ for posting.”

  • “OMG, I love this quiche.Thanks so much for posting!”

  • “We all loved this!”

  • “I made a modification of this recipe for my husband’s family last weekend and everyone loved it!!I used Gouda instead of swiss, since I had some already and used a whole container (16oz) of egg substitute, three eggs worth would not be nearly enough.This increased the cooking time about 20 minutes.Fabulous combination of flavors.”

  • “This was great!I didn’t have any blue cheese, so I left it out, but it was great anyway!”

  • “This was so delicious! The flavors were excellent together, I think this is the best quiche I’ve had. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe :)”

  • “I used only 2 tablespoons of blue cheese but that may not have been enough.The flavors were very nice though and I will try the recipe again as written.”

  • “I made this for Mother’s Day for my mom.It was a HUGE hit. Even my hard to please brother liked it!Will definitely be making this again!”

  • “Awesome flavor and easy to make!!”

  • “Very good.Very cheesey. Rich and full of flavor.The blue cheese gave this a slight tang that not all tasters enjoyed as well as expected.Still very good and with very accurate, clear instructions”

  • “This was absolutely delicious! The only change I made was using gruyere (all I had on hand) which is so similar to Swiss that the flavour shouldn’t be affected. Thanx LDJ!”

  • “I’ve made this quiche 2 or 3 times this year and enjoyed it each time.It won rave responses as an appetizer at a party and another time served us as a main supper dish. It is great!! thanks, LDJ”

  • “For those of us who cant eat mushrooms, or dont have any. drained canned pears sliced and added would go nicely with the blue cheese.”
