Three Cheese Quiche

Sharing is caring!

Inside: This three-cheese quiche recipe is the best quiche recipe I’ve had. Its unique blend of spices makes it stand out from the other recipes.

This 3-cheese quiche recipe is my family’s favorite quiche. A simple quiche is a great option if you need a filling meal that doesn’t rely heavily on meat.

Since it relies on cheap protein – eggs, you can still feed your family well without breaking the budget. And if you raise your own chickens, you’ve likely got plenty of eggs.

And even if you don’t have your own flock, most people keep a few eggs in the refrigerator.

Do you know why eggs are more popular in the spring? There is a “season” for eggs, just like for fruits and vegetables. Chickens tend to lay more in early spring. That’s why there are so many deviled eggs served at Easter.

This Three Cheese Quiche Recipe is Adaptable

This three-cheese quiche recipe is very adaptable, but it makes a great base recipe. You can change up the vegetables based on what you have on hand. (Or what needs to be used up!) Broccoli, mushrooms, and roasted red peppers all make great additions to your quiche.

You can add additional protein in the form of various meats too. Leftover ham, bacon, or sausage are all delicious when added to the quiche. And it only takes a little bit to make a tasty addition.

Even though this is a three-cheese quiche, I often will use only one type of cheese or any combination of cheeses if I need to use some up.

You can use a store-bought pie crust, but if you don’t have one on hand, you can make your own or just skip it all together. I tried this pie crust recipe and found it easy and delicious. I didn’t chill the dough like it said (Oops! What can I say? I was in a hurry.) but it still tasted fantastic.

The crust did fold in on itself as you can see in the pictures, but that is only because I didn’t chill it! (Also, I am not good at making things pretty. Boys don’t seem to care.)

What makes this three cheese quiche different than most other quiche recipes I’ve seen on the internet is the spices and the addition of a little bit of Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. They really amp up the flavor to make this the best quiche recipe you’ll find.

I like to serve this quiche with a simple side salad or a fruit salad. If I’m desperate, I will thaw some frozen fruit, drizzle a little honey over the top, and call it a day.
