    for some reason I have a quiche thing this week too. I am hanging out to make mine!!

    One time I made an awesome quiche that I've never been able to replicate. I think the secret was putting lots of cream and ricotta cheese in....yum....

    The Taste website has some good options for quiche. I make the Impossible Quiche option which has flour, milk and eggs and whatever meat / veg you want to add but no pastry. So kind of like a fritatta.

    I like the idea of a pastry less quiche!

    I normally buy a savory flan from the frezzer department mix spinach, ricotta and fetta together aswell as some eggs and wack it all together thek cook for about 30mins

    Hi ladies

    I use the folllowing easy crustless quiche recipe and just change the ingredients for variety (add chorizo, mushrooms, capsicum etc). DH loves it and we have it almost every week. Nice and easy and very cheap to make (and no hassling with blind-baking the pastry) :

    1 small onion, chopped
    3-4 rashers bacon
    4-5 eggs (I sometimes use 6 if I want to make a big 'un)
    chopped parsley
    grated cheese
    1/4 cup plain flour
    1 tablespoon butter
    2 cups milk (if I have cream around I sometimes substitute 1 cup of the milk with cream)
    salt and pepper to taste

    Fry onion and bacon; melt butter and mix with flour

    Add milk, beaten eggs, parsley, cheese, fried onion and bacon; s&p.

    Pour into quiche or pie dish.

    Bake 180C (350F) for 40 mins.

    Stand for 10 mins before serving.

    Serve with boiled baby potatoes and a salad

    1 cup grated cheddar cheese
    1/2 teas dried oregano
    1/2 teaspoon dried basil
