For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the egg mixture. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking. Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as Gruyere or Swiss, for the Cheddar. This quiche can be made ahead of time and reheated. Store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
