Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 4 slices bacon
- 2.5 cups broccoli ((fresh and cut into small pieces))
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk ((I use almond milk - but you can use regular milk, half and half, or cream))
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 9 inch pie crust ((frozen))
Instruction
- Heat a medium sauté pan on medium heat. Cut up the bacon into 1 inch pieces and add to the pan as it heats up. Separate each slice with a wooden spatula and cook until crispy. Stir every 30 seconds or so. This takes around 5 minutes.Note: You may need to spoon some bacon fat out as the meat cooks. Spoon it into a glass container and save as you'll need it for the next step.
- While the bacon is cooking, cut up the broccoli into small pieces and set aside.
- Line a plate with paper towels and once the bacon is done, remove it from the pan and place it on the plate. Blot the extra grease off the bacon with a paper towel.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add a few tablespoons of bacon fat back into the sauté pan and add the broccoli to the pan. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring every minute.
- Crack eggs in large mixing bowl, add salt, pepper, milk and whisk until combined.
- Crumble the bacon further into the sizes you want and add it to the egg mixture.
- Add shredded cheese and broccoli and mix with the eggs with a rubber spatula.
- Pour egg mixture into the frozen pie shell and bake for 45 minutes. As all ovens are different, check to see if the quiche is done after 35 minutes by sticking a butter knife in the center. If it comes out clean, it's done.
