Mushroom Quiche Review by Elaine on March 5th, 2015:

I loved this recipe, but had to change it up a little. Since I like lots of cheese I added 2 cups shredded cheese & I subsituted light cream for the heavy. I didn't have on hand green onions but did have a medium sized shallot to mince up. I also always grate in some fresh nutmeg to all my quiches. Gives it that special something.

Just made this.. I substituted almond milk for heavy cream. Used about a 1/4 cup less milk. Turned out perfect with a few less calories.

Just whipped this one up and it was yummy. The hubs loved it but the only thing I would change would be to cut down on the heavy cream say to 1.5cups instead of 2. Other than that, easy and tasty.
