Mushroom Crust Quiche

    Cuisine:

    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.

    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.
