Quiche Lorraine

 I love a good quiche. For this one I found a recipe online and made a few changes. Here is what you will need:
  • Eggs (3)
  • Half n half - (1 1/2 Cup)
  • Bacon -(to your hearts desire)
  • Asparagus - (2 stocks)
  • Pie Crust - (Make your own or be lazy like me and buy it) 
  • Cheese- (1/2 cup grated)
  • Green Onions (1)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Start by cutting up your bacon and cooking it in a skillet. The original recipe doesn't tell you to do this but I like my bacon nice and crispy. Cook till about 3/4 of the way you normally like your bacon. . 


Dry the bacon and lay across the bottom of the pie crust. Then sprinkle some grated cheese across (I used Parmesan and Gruyere). Then your sliced asparagus. I blanched the asparagus but don't think you really need to. 
 Then whisk three eggs with 1 1/2 cups of half n half and poor over the mix. I then diced up some green onions and threw over the top. 
 Toss in the over for 25-35 minutes. It took me about 45 minutes, but I think thats because I didn't preheat the oven quickly enough. 
It's best to let is sit for 15-20 minutes to set and then cut and serve. 
I paired mine with a fresh grapefruit with powdered sugar. 

I have to say this is my favorite breakfast so far. I haven't had quiche in a long time but i'm looking forward to having leftovers for breakfast tomorrow.
