Bacon Vegetable Quiche image

This bacon quiche is so versatile. You can use Vidalia onions, green onions or leeks. Asparagus can take the place of broccoli, and you can use whatever fresh herbs or cheese you have on hand. -Shannon Koene, Blacksburg, Virginia

I thought this quiche was just average. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either.

The crust was too thick and the filling was too runny. I don't think I'll be making this quiche again.

This quiche was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
