Puff Pastry Quiche Lorraine image

Please use only Swiss cheese for this recipe, I have made the mistake of using another kind of cheese and it just doesn't work! Purchase a 14-ounce (397 gram) package of puff pastry, and use half for this recipe. The original recipe for this does not call for garlic, but I like to add it in... of course, it is optional.
