Here's an all-purpose quiche recipe. I put it together  
from the suggestions in various cookbooks.  
a pie crust (9- or 10-in pan)

1
egg white  
/4 - 1/3 pound grated cheese (Gruyere is best; cheddar is good too)  
eggs  
/2 cup light cream (or half and half)  
cup heavy cream  
/4 teaspoon nutmeg  
/2 teaspoon salt  
/4 teaspoon white pepper (black is OK too)  
One or more of the following fillings:  
5
1
or 6 bacon strips, cut into 1-inch pieces and cooked  
/4 pound sliced ham, fried slightly (brings out flavor)  
scallions (about 1 bunch), chopped and sauteed in butter  
mushrooms (about 10 ounces), sliced and sauteed in butter  
spinach (one bunch), chopped, steamed, and drained  
Beat egg white slightly, and spread a thin layer of egg white  
over uncooked pie crust. Prebake the pie crust at 425 F (400  
for a glass pan) for 10-15 minutes. Let cool.  
Place cheese in crust. Add one or more of the fillings  
(about 1 - 1 1/2 cups filling(s) total).  
Mix eggs, both kinds of cream, and spices. Pour gently on top  
of cheese and filling(s).  
Bake at 375 F (350 for glass pan) for 45 minutes, or until  
a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.  
(I use the Basic pie crust from the New York Times Cookbook.)
