This recipe is so adaptable! You can change the type of cheese you use, according to what you have on hand. Leave out the bacon, or use ham or canadian bacon. You can use a combination of cream and ordinary milk for the half and half. Add sauteed vegetables. Use shrimp, or chicken, or cooked sausage. I know two little girls whose favorite quiche flavor is spinach!
