You can serve this outdoors while watching the little nippers and the fireworks. I like to make it at Christmas time. It keeps in the refrigerator for 3-4 weeks. I modified quiche lorraine by adding spinach and using lower fat items like buttermilk and light cream. I tried these in an Italian Deli.
Some people use mozzerella, or even pepperjack cheese.
I prefer parmesan. Potted Cheese Serve this cheese spread with an assortment of crackers and melba toast. Sustitute other cheese E.G. Blue or White cheddar. Another family fav. Great for baby or wedding showers.
