I love this quick and easy quiche recipe with Bacon and Cheese. I think you will too.
Quiche is a classic French dish that consists of a savory custard filling in a pastry crust. It can be made with a variety of ingredients such as bacon, ham, cheese, and vegetables, making it a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. This recipe is a simple and delicious quiche that is perfect for feeding a crowd or for meal prepping. The quiche can be easily adjusted to suit your taste and dietary preferences, for example, you can use milk or cream, or you can add more vegetables or different types of cheese.
In this recipe, I use a shortcrust pastry as the base, which adds a buttery and flaky texture to the quiche. The custard filling is made with eggs, milk, grated cheese, diced bacon or ham, and a touch of salt and pepper. You can also add diced vegetables such as mushrooms, bell peppers, or onions to the custard filling for more flavor and nutrition. This recipe is for 4 people, and it is cooked in an oven. One of the great things about quiche is that it can be served hot or cold, making it a great option for a brunch party or a picnic. It is also a great option for meal prepping as it can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
