I never have been a real egg-eater, but quiche falls into an egg category all its own to me. This recipe is one I've fixed for my family many times.

Quiche Lorraine
 
1 unbaked 9" pastry shell
6 slices bacon
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup milk
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
dash cayenne pepper
 
    Preheat over to 450 degrees. Bake pie shell 5 minutes. Remove shell and reduce heat to 375 degrees. Cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and drain all but 1 tablespoon bacon grease. Saute onion in the grease until golden brown. Crumble bacon. Layer bacon, onion, then cheese in pie shell. In a bowl, combine cream, milk, eggs, and seasonings.  Pour into shell. Bake 30-35 minutes until top is light brown and knife inserted into center comes out clean. Let quiche set for 10-15 minutes before serving.

This recipe is one our family eats EVERY Thanksgiving or Christmas. It's super easy to fix, which is good because we get busy cooking other dishes that take up more of our time. It's always interesting to see who gets first dibs on making this one. Enjoy!

Recipe of the Month
Most women like to try a new recipe now and then. Each month, I will post a recipe from the pile I have collected over the years -- or a new one I myself recently have tried and liked. Given the condition of the economy and the fact that we are all busy, a lot of the dishes will be easy and budget-friendly.

At the very bottom of the page, you can send me a recipe you like. When I have time, I might fix it for our dinner or type a few recipes I get onto the blog to share.
To send your recipe, use the e-mail address below. Thanks, and happy cooking...and eating!
