  This is such a good idea rather than eating your way through them all or throwing. Imay change onions to red ones .

  Baking Beans are ceramic beans that you use when you bake the pastry case blind. I use dried chickpeas which I keep in a tin for this use, and you can use again and again - cheaper than baking beans! This looks yummy especially with nicely caramalised onions.

  I made this quiche using a combination of Cornish Blue, Red Leicester and Cheddar. It was the easiest quiche I have ever made and the best. I shall definately make this again and will experiment with other cheeses.

  Used all the leftover cheese to make this. I added red onions as suggested. First attempt at making quiche - it was easy peasy and delicious. Will definitely make again, like the idea of adding bacon.

  I made this as part of a buffet for a family Christmas party. It was delicious and went down a treat with everyone. I used bought in frozen pastry to make life a bit easier. I used stilton, brie and Dubliner cheese. No need to add much salt as the cheese is salty enough. I used 3 eggs and half milk half cream instead of all that cream. May try leeks instead of onions next time. Can see myself making this again and again.

  A fantastic flavour is achieved by slowly cooking the onions and using a good mix of cheeses. I used stilton, creamy lancashire and mature cheddar. The most delicious savoury tart ever, I'd say!

  Delicious - both hot and cold for lunch the next day. I would add more stilton (I didn't have enough when I made it) and I like the idea of red onions and leeks.

  One of my "have it on hand" favs. I have used combinations of any cheeses I have on hand and all have worked well together. I have added leftover roasted red pepper and it added a great flavor and a pretty color. Oh ya one more thing I add a couple teaspoons of mustard to the egg, milk ( not cream usually) mixture. Good good good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
