This looks so good! What a great combination of flavors!
This looks great! I am going to make this to go along with our dinner for Thanksgiving. Do you need to par bake the crust?
Made this yesterday! Absolutely delish! It is light, fluffy and full of flavor! My husband and daughter said I need to add it to our rotation!
This was really delicious. I’ve made many quiches, and often find there’s too much stuff to fit in one pie pan. I was worried that would be the case here so I started everything just splitting between two pie crusts. I did end up having to make a little more egg/cream/sour cream mix to top it off, but I really don’t think it would have fit.
Was very creamy and flavorful!
