Quiche Lorraine


This is a recipe I got from my mom. She's been making it as long as I can remember. It's pretty simple and very delicious. Even though this is usually a breakfast dish, it's great any time. If you use my pie crust recipe, you can make two quiches (double the recipe below).

This one is for Audrey.

Ingredients
4 slices of thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 lb Swiss cheese, grated
4 eggs
1 C cream
1/2 C milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1 unbaked pie crust

Mix all ingredients together.



Pour into pie shell.


Bake 35-40 minutes at 375F on lower shelf in oven. Center should still be slightly wiggly.

(For the one pictured below, we also added spinach.)


Additional optional ingredients:
  • Mushrooms
  • Carrots, shredded
  • Spinach, 10 oz. package
  • Broccoli
  • Asparagus (1-1/2 lb)
  • Red pepper
  • Avocado
  • Zucchini
  • Ham (with cheddar cheese instead of Swiss)
  • Salami and corn
  • Tomato and onion

  3. Se la traduzco: (I'll translate it for you): 4 lonchas de beicon cocinadas y picadas; media libra de queso suizo rallado; 4 huevos; una taza de crema; media taza de leche; una cuarta cucharadita de sal; una octava chucharadita de nuez moscado; una masa de tarta congelada sin cocinar. Mezcle todos los ingredientes y viertelos en la tarta. Hornea por 35 - 40 minutos a 375F en la parte abajo del horno.
