Quiche Question

[Gourmet_Mom]

I should have probably said I'd ideas, but using the two Q words was hard to resist!

Anyway, Ashley just left a client's house with a dozen fresh eggs. And she'd like to make a quiche. I told her that a quiche is kind of like a pizza, whatever cheeses, veggies and proteins you like would work, but I wanted your input. So give me your best tried and true!!!

One of my favorite combos is either ham or bacon with canned green chilies. |

Traditional quiche lorraine is my all time favorite, but due to the calorie count, I only make it once or twice a year. The rest of the time, I make one with spinach and cheese. Any good quality cheese works.
