Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have a 9-inch pie crust, you can use a 10-inch crust instead. You will need to increase the baking time by about 10 minutes.
- If you want to make your quiche ahead of time, you can refrigerate it for up to 2 days before baking.
- When reheating the quiche, cover it with foil to prevent the crust from burning.
