Directions
Mushroom Crust Quiche, Serve this quiche with a fresh fruit for a wonderful meal For something different, you can change up the cheese — Monterey jack with green chilies, diced ham with Cheddar or bacon bits, sauteed onions and Jarlsberg , I’ve been making this recipe since the mid 1970s, when I first found it in Sunset’s Favorite Recipes cookbook Over the years, I have made a couple minor modifications that I think punches the flavor a bit Instead of saltines use Wheat Thins , which makes for a crunchier crust And, I always used chive cottage cheese, rather than plain But since that flavor seems to have disappeared from grocery shelves, I add a good tablespoon of freeze dried chives to the egg/cottage cheese mixture And, finally, I always used Monterey Jack cheese rather than Swiss (northern California girl here) So glad to see this recipe resurrected I’m making this this weekend so excited
