Bacon Basil Quiche

and 

Spinach Bacon Quiche

 

Easter is this weekend 

and we thought we would give you 

an early Easter present

with two recipes this week!

Two delightfully delicious quiches.

Both perfect for a Sunday Brunch 

or a lovely addition to 

Easter Dinner.

  Bacon Basil Quiche is creamy and smooth 

with provolone cheese, bacon, and fresh basil.

This light dish is a perfect meal

with a salad and crusty rolls.

You can use any pie crust you like.

Made from scratch, from a box mix, or

a ready-to-use pie crust.

We like to use Pillsbury Pie Crust.

So simple.

Layer your provolone cheese in the bottom of the crust.

Whisk your eggs.

Chop your bacon and basil.

Layer it on top of the cheese.

Gently pour the egg mixture on top of the bacon and basil.

Top with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and nutmeg. 

Fresh out of the oven.

Spinach Bacon Quiche

 

 We have a family member who is a picky eater, but absolutely loves this quiche!

Imagine not liking salad, but loving spinach.

Go figure! 

In fact, she is the one who gave us this recipe.

Even if you are not a big fan of spinach 

this is a delicious quiche. 

Try it.

Start with a pie crust, milk, bacon, cheese, eggs, and spinach.

We use frozen spinach. Thaw it ,then squeeze with between paper towels to remove the liquid.

 Sprinkle half of the chopped, cooked bacon in the pie crust.

Whisk the eggs, milk, and flour together.

Add the spinach and cheese.

Mix.

Pour into the crust and top with the other half of the bacon.

Bake for 45 - 60 minutes, until set.
