Cheesy Bacon Quiche - Printable Recipe

Quiche is one of my go-to meals!
And I have an easy one to share with you today.

      quiche: (keesh) 
              is an open-face pastry crust with a 
              filling of eggs and milk which, when
              baked, becomes a custard. It can be 
              made with vegetables, meat and seafood.

This definition tells me that as long as I have
milk and eggs, I can pretty much dump any
thing else I have in a pie crust and have 
dinner on the table in about 30 minutes!

That's a winner in my book.

And the fact that you can "customize"
your quiche for your family puts this
meal over the top!



Today's recipe is a very basic one, you could 
switch out the bacon for any meat or seafood
and use any cheese that compliments the 
protein you chose.
OR
Use whatever you have on hand; leftovers
work great!

My hubby likes to make a big breakfast for the family

over the weekend; bacon, eggs, pancakes and french

toast. Its a regular breakfast bar. 

So this past weekend, I asked him to make some extra

bacon so I could make quiche this week.

Well, you would have thought I spoke in a foreign 

language, both my son & hubby cocked their 

heads and in unison said, "There is no such

thing as "extra" bacon!"

Ooookay!

So I just bagged some up before bringing it 

to the breakfast table and no one even noticed.

This quiche starts simply by putting your pie

crust in the pie plate. Homemade crust or

store bought, both work fine.

Feel free to make a pretty crimped edge,

I just throw my store bought crust in this

time and didn't worry about the pretty part.

Then toss gently place your bacon and 

shredded cheese in the crust.

Beat your eggs, milk, salt and pepper together

and pour it into the crust.

Pop it in the oven and in about 30 minutes you'll

be enjoying a yummy meal with your family.

It's that easy!

Here's the handy dandy printable recipe.
I hope you'll give it a try.

Blessings!
