Self crusting quiche
"This is my favourite quiche recipe mainly because it is very vesatile. I have made a number of variations using the basic egg mixture each time but with different filling. eg. subtituting canned asparagus,and,1/4 pint asparagus brine and 1/4 pint milk instead of 1/2 pint milk. The basic recipe I was given atleast 10 years ago - but I've improved on it over the years."

Karin, this was a big hit today at my luncheon. There was not a piece left. Bummer is I only got one small, small piece. So I will make this again soon for me to have all to myself :) I didn't add the blue cheese only because I forgot that I didn't have any. But next time I will. Loved it! -
Doughy tasting. I've a much better recipe than this but thought I might try something different. Will NOT make again. -
I also used half the flour and substituted a few ingredients and it has turned out pretty good. Did not rise a lot, but still tastes good. -
WOW, I just made a SODERY Bacon and Egg cake . It was literally a CAKE. I have made alot of self crusting quiches that have turned out wonderful. I don't know where you got this recipe from but You should take it off here. Don't cook this -
This is nice, but the crust was too thick in my opinion .. next time I will use half a cup of flour, or less .. thanks, this was quick and easy!

I live in New Zealand, I'm married and my husband and I have no children....but we do have a dog (Bruno the Poodle), and a cat (Gus the Birman)!
Back in November 2000, I resigned from a 17yr career with Air New Zealand as a Purser. I am now working as a Private Investigator with my husband - having his own Investigation Company. The work is varied and at times very rewarding as I'm sure you can imagine!
I have an absolute passion for shoes...what woman doesn't??!!!, and fashion generally, including that of Home Interiors and furnishings, and gardens.
I enjoy, among many past-times, art, gardening, water ski-ing, power walking,
and ofcourse...COOKING!!(and entertaining).
I guess my pet peeve would be running late for an appointment somewhere! 10 minutes early = 10 minutes late with me!! So, ON time is VERY late!!!
If I had a month off - no work, and no responsibilities I would buy 2 return airfares to Honolulu!! And spend 2 weeks on Waikiki Beach with my husband and 2 weeks at home in the kitchen!! And entertaining friends and family.
