  made this for a summer lunch and it was enjoyed by all, have since made it again and used spinach instead of watercress which seemed to work.

  Great recipe. I used Mrs Crimbles pastry mix for the base which was really easy and soooo tasty.

  Made this with spinach instead of the watercress (not readily available around here), and it didn't last long. A great gf recipe!

  Any tips on making gluten free pastry - doesn't seem as easy as ordinary pastry!

  This was lovely, and very easy to make. It also froze very well. Not everyone who ate it is a fan of goat's cheese, though. Does anyone know of a good alternative cheese to use? Would feta or ricotta work, does anyone know?

  Very tasty The watercress was so much better than the spinach used in similar recipes. I will definitely make this again.

  I have made this quiche on a number of occasions - absolutely lovely. I did think that the goats cheese was too strong so I added some soft blue (cambazola) which worked really well.

  Made this today and it went down well. I added a pinch of cayenne pepper to give it a kick and used shop bought pastry. Still yummy though!
