Bacon Egg and Cheese Quiche
There is nothing nicer than a good quiche. I sometimes call it a complete breakfast in a pie shell. As one member said: "What a fantastic way to start the day!"
[wpinsertshortcodead id="pgypi60b189d6e468e"]
- 1 medium pie shell
- 6 large eggs
- 3/4 cup half and half cream
- 2 medium stalks of green onions, chopped
- 1/2 medium red bell pepper, chopped
- 6 medium strips of bacon, chopped
- 1 cup old shredded cheddar cheese (I use old sharp cheese, but you can use the cheese of your choice.)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Using a fork, poke some holes into the pie shell. Place into a 375 degree F or 190 C preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
Add the eggs, cream, onions, red bell pepper, bacon, cheese, salt, and pepper to a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
Allow the pie shell to cool for a few minutes and pour in the quiche mixture. It should be filled about 3/4 the way full. Place in a 375 F. or 190 C preheated oven for about 45 minutes.
Serve and enjoy your bacon, egg, and cheese quiche.
