Bacon and Cheddar Quiche





This is a favorite at my house. Real men, women and children do eat quiche. (You'll have to be an 80s fan to get that.)

Bacon and Cheddar Quiche
Based on some recipe I found on the internet and didn't keep track of.
Serves 4-6

Ingredients:

pre-made pie shell - (go fresh if you like)
1-1.5 cups cooked bacon (crumbled)
4 large eggs
1.5 cups half-and-half or whole milk
1/4 teaspoons dried leaf thyme
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1-1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms

Directions:
  1. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Line pie pan with pre-made pie shell or fresh if you like and bake for 8 minutes.
  3. Remove from oven and put shredded cheddar and sliced mushrooms at the bottom.
  4. Beat eggs by hand and add milk/half&half, thyme, and pepper.
  5. Pour into pie shell.
  6. Evenly distribute crumbled bacon on top of egg mixture.
  7. Bake for 45 minutes or up to an hour until the center is firm.
