This is the basic recipe I used for quiche. Normally I use the Joy of Cooking recipe but thought I'd try something different. I wanted to emulate Saliha's recipe but decided I didn't want the zucchini, herbs, or parm. I was worried the zucchini would be too wet. I used 1/4 pound chanterelles, 1/4 pound smoked pork shoulder bacon (cottage bacon sometimes called Kansas City bacon), and 6 ounces of cubed Gruyere. I didn't use onions but will next time and also subbed 2% milk instead of cream or half and half. It's what I had.
I sautéed mushrooms and bacon in a small amount of salt free butter and added after placing the milk egg mixture in the the pie dish.
I didn't think the chanterelles added anything and next time will use shitaki's that have more mushroom flavour.
