Remember back in January when I told the story about my grandma hobnobing with Paris Hilton? I had mentioned how we had celebrated WD's birthday at a restaurant there in Altus, AR (where A Simple Life was filmed) and WD just went on and on and on about their onion soup. While he was raving about the soup, I was raving about what I had ordered. The Quiche Lorraine. Bacon. Cheese. Onions. You can't get better than that. Oh, wait, you can! When you make it into a pie!
Ready to bake pie crust
8 slices bacon, crisply cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese ( I used sliced)
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
4 large eggs
2 cups whipping cream or half-and-half
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp ground red pepper ( I didn't use any)
Bake pie crust in pie plate according to package directions.
When done, set temp to 325 degrees F. Sprinkle bacon, cheese and onion onto pie crust.
In a bowl, beat eggs slightly; beat in remaining ingredients. Pour into pie plate.
Bake 45-50 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

ReplyDeleteThat does look good, but I don't think I could make it as good as you so you'll just have to send me some :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! I'm never good at making a quiche, plus I'm the only one who would eat it so I don't make it that often! I may have to try this!! Thanks!

Jenn--Not quite, but I think it's almost sugar free and full of protein!
Rachel--If you do let me know how it turns out! I'm thinking the next time I fix it I'll caramelize the onions first.
Rebecca--I think the USA treats it more like fancy bed and breakfast inn type food:)
Angie--Super easy! And South Beach friendly, too.
LeAnn--Hmmmm...I don't know if the post office would go for that!
Robyn--That just means there's more for you!
Debateur--Only if you buy me a pie plate. I don't even own a pie plate!

I am in love with this, and I am making your sour cream coconut cake this weekend. Well, I am going to try...
ReplyDeleteYUM. I am sooooo making this. And how can you be a Lazy Dog and cook such fantastic dinners??? Lazy Dogs heat up hot dogs in the microwave (that would be me).
