Ingredients

• 1 piece pre-made pie crust
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or your preferred type)
• 0.5 cup cooked and crumbled bacon (or diced ham, or cooked sausage)
• 1 cup chopped vegetables (e.g., spinach, onions, mushrooms, or bell peppers)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess crust if needed. Use a fork to prick small holes in the bottom and edges of the crust to prevent bubbling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

Step 4

Spread the cooked and crumbled meat (bacon, ham, or sausage) evenly across the bottom of the pie crust.

Step 5

Add the chopped vegetables and shredded cheese, spreading them evenly over the meat layer.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture over the meat, vegetables, and cheese, making sure it fills the crust evenly.

Step 7

Carefully place the quiche in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. You can test doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.

Step 8

Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, or allow it to cool completely and serve at room temperature.
