Quiche Lorraine is a classic French dish known for its rich, savory flavors and flaky crust. This homemade version features a golden pastry base filled with a creamy egg custard, crisp bacon, and melted cheese, often Gruyère or Swiss, with hints of nutmeg for added depth. Originating in the Lorraine region of France, this dish exemplifies traditional French cuisine and its emphasis on simple, yet indulgent ingredients. While it offers protein from eggs and bacon, and calcium from cheese, Quiche Lorraine can also be high in fat and calories due to the butter in the crust and full-fat dairy. Pairing it with a fresh green salad can balance the meal and provide essential nutrients. For a lighter option, modifications such as reduced-fat cheese or lean turkey bacon can make this timeless favorite more health-conscious.
