Love you long time Quiche!

Oh wow. I write this while eating my first of hopefully many creations. Quiche! Love you long time Quiche! Viva la Quiche! Not just any quiche. This one doesn't have really anything healthy in it. Genius. I blow myself away with utter confidence and natural ability.

I have always wanted to bake a quiche. I always get one when I go to the coffee shop and it is a regular among my friends parents when they need to feed a multitude of hungry people. Keep in mind this one is quick and can cook up in large quantities fast.


My process:

1. Find your ingredients. I opted for onion, red and green pepper, garlic, butter, bacon, butter, egg, salt, and milk.

I got far enough in reading the instructions and figured out that the oven needed to be at 350 degrees. (this is easy to see usually at the top or bottom of the recipe.) I also noticed that the meat and cheese needed to go in the cake pan first then the mixture of the rest last. We are going for fast reading here with minimal brain output.

Commence cheese grating and bacon frying! Let me tell you friends. There is nothing better than the smell of bacon in the afternoon. Preferably at the end of a long afternoon.

Chop the veggies in small pieces or whatever feels good. Note to self. The veggies in this one determine the size of the cake pan. So chop what feels good then drop the bacon and cheese in the pan and make sure you have enough room for all the veggies that have found their way onto your cutting board. When I drink wine while performing this chore. I usually end up with more than what will fit. I went through two or three cake pan sizes before I got the one that felt right.

Mix egg and all other ingredients together. Pour over cheese and bacon. I did this and found that I didn't add enough eggs. If this is the case and it looks like your Quiche is being taken over by bacon and cheese. Simply add more egg and milk until it looks a little more balanced. Not that a complete takeover is bad. Just difficult to bake.

I sprinkled a little red pepper on top for color. I am a big believer that if your dish looks like it has a variety of colors you are headed to flavor town! Bake.

When baking without measuring. Keep in mind that it is best to set a schedule of 30 min with frequent checks. The size is off now. And only God knows how long it should take. Mine took about 45 min.

Recommendations?

1. Always more cheese. Make sure you completely ignore the measuring cups on this one. A Quiche in my opinion cannot have enough cheese. Grate until your little heart says, "Stop! We need more for tomorrow!" Then grate a little more.

2. Rest assured that any combination of butter, egg, cheese, onion (the sweet here), milk, and of course bacon is a guaranteed success.

3. A side of avocado, strawberry, or tomato is completely allowed and encouraged. I will even endorse the side of sausage if needed. Because what is better than a meal made of bacon and cheese but a side of sausage. Commonly known in my circle of friends as a the Vitamin P (pork). Very good for you in large quantities.

That's it! Easy Quiche dinner! Best of luck to all you hungry short attention span adults out there. This one was easy. Remember. You can't go wrong with butter, egg, and cheese.
