Eggs Quiche

Making some quiches to bring to the game. Looking at a few recipes. Some with more eggs. Some with whipping cream. Some with half and half. Your experience?

One is going to be mushroom onion. The other is going to have sauteed cabbage and bacon. (Sounds wierd but reviews have been good.)

I want to use the same base for both so I've been comparing recipes.

I'm looking at three recipes:

One has 1 cup half and half, 3 eggs and a cup of gruyere.

A second one has 1 and 1/2 cups half and half, 6 eggs and 2 cups cheddar.

A third one (a Dorie Greenspan recipe) has 3/4 cup whipping cream and 2 eggs. No eggs. That one looks flatter in the picture.

What's your experience? For best taste and consistency. Also want to be sure it "sets up."

I imagine the one with whipping cream is creamier in texture.

Any thoughts>
