Bacon and Swiss Quiche

We love quiche in our house; however, my mother is allergic to onions, so we created a recipe that she can enjoy with us. This is great with a cup of broth on a rainy day.

Ingredients

• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 3 eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 ½ cups shredded Swiss cheese
• 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
• ½ cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
• ½ teaspoon spicy brown mustard
• 1 (9 inch) frozen pie crust, thawed
• 1 ¾ pounds sliced bacon

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prick bottom and sides of pie crust and bake 10 minutes, until lightly brown; set aside to cool.

Step 2

Place bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.

Step 3

In a bowl, mix eggs, milk, mustard and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, toss bacon with flour to lightly coat. Spread 3/4 bacon mixture and Swiss cheese over bottom of pie crust. Pour egg mixture over bacon mixture. Top with remaining bacon mixture.

Step 4

Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a fork inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
