Our bacon, and, Cheese Quiche is a simple, easy and delicious combination. I often make it up for breakfast and family and friends love it. Believe me, they will beg for the recipe. The great thing about Quiche is, you can alter the ingredients. For example, you can add garlic, onion, or any spice of your choice.

You need to check the amount of salt!! I only use 1tsp of salt instead of 1cup like recipe calls for. The quiche is very good!!

Hi! Your recipe calls for 1/2 cup of salt, that seems to be a typo 🙂
