Directions
Cheesy Quiche Lorraine,I LOVE this quiche. It’s crustless. The texture is fabulous. You can vary this in many ways by changing the filling ingredients. This one is bacon and Gruyere. I sometimes add green onion and 1/4 c dijon mustard to this recipe. Or I’ll go totally different and just add lots of diced and sauteed veggies and omit the bacon and cheese. I like to serve it with a small salad and a cluster of seedless grapes or some melon.,This not a quiche but a gratin. A quiche means tart in Alsace/Lorraine and a tart has a crust.
