Quiche

Tonight was Jake's night to cook. He decided to use some of the many eggs we have in the fridge. He wanted to make a quiche, one of the only ways I can get him to eat eggs.

He started by making a pie crust from scratch, I am unsure of what recipe he used, because I was at work. I am sure a store bought one would work just as well.

 He cut up, green onions, red and yellow sweet mini peppers, grated 2 cloves of garlic, sliced about 2 cups of baby spinach, and shredded 2 cups of swiss cheese. He also cooked 6 slices of bacon.

First, heat oven to 375 degrees. He mixed 6 large eggs, with 1 1/2 cups of milk (it called for heavy cream, but he used 2% lactose free milk), then added thyme, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and paprika. Whisk until well blended.

Next, spray the bottom of pan with a spray canola oil, then roll out your dough, place it in a quiche pan, or improvise like Jake did. He used a round cake pan. Then layer all your veggies and bacon into the pan. Lastly pour the egg mixture over the veggies/bacon. Place in the oven for 45 minutes or until the eggs are cooked. Our eggs were still runny, so he put it back in for a little longer. Lactose free milk tends to make baked foods runnier.
