Expert Tips

We've replaced ingredients with great-tasting alternatives to create better-for-you recipes that are just as yummy as the original.

For the best results we recommend using a mixture of eggs and egg whites. We tested this recipe using fat-free egg product, and found the flavor to be a bit bland and the texture slightly curdled.

Look for cooked bacon strips near the lunch meat items at the grocery store.

in the recipe, it says to put the bacon, cheese, and onions on top of the crust, then pour egg mixture over that, but in the picture, the egg is right on top of the crust, with cheese etc on top it it... what are you supposed to do??

This recipe is so easy and soooo good! My entire family loved it, even my pickiest son ate 2 pieces and I cant get him to eat much of anything. My husband was very surprised too that he liked it so much, he thought it was great! I am not much of an egg person and I loved it, there is nothing not to love about this dish! I made two pie plates of quiche and only one little piece was left! I had to add 5 tablespoons of boiling water for the crust to get the right consistency.

I made this quiche over the weekend and it wonderful. Everyone in my house loved it. I used turkey bacon instead of regular bacon and I also added some red and gren bellpeppers.
