Tips: Another reason to love quiche recipes- they are versatile! Fresh herbs and feta cheese is always delicious. Bacon, pancetta or sausage and mozzarella cheese can be added to the egg mixture. Or you can make it an all cheese quiche. Heavy cream can be substituted with milk or a plant based such as almond milk. If you can’t locate lemon infused goat cheese, regular goat cheese can be used and add lemon zest..
