Quiche is one of those timeless dishes that you can prepare for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Real men say they “Don’t eat quiche”. Really? That’s too bad, more for the rest of us.
I love preparing Quiche in a deep-dish fluted pan. The deep-dish pan makes for a very impressive presentation.
Spinach, Mushroom & Swiss Quiche
Here is a tip to keep your filling from falling to the bottom of your quiche. When adding filling to your pie crust add 1/2 then place a layer of sliced cheese in the middle then finish with remaining mixture. You will enjoy filling in every bite and a layer of extra cheese. YUM!
I also like to refrigerate the filling until it cools before adding to egg mixture.
