For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
Feel free to experiment with different cheese combinations! Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or Parmesan would also be delicious.
If the crust starts to brown too quickly during baking, cover the edges with foil.
Quiche can be made ahead of time and reheated. Store in the refrigerator and warm in a moderate oven before serving.
Add cooked and crumbled bacon or sausage to the onion mixture for a heartier quiche.
