My mom called me the other day while she was at the grocery store, to have me tell her the ingredients for this family favorite quiche. I went straight to the computer to look it up here on Recipes Dream and lo and behold, I've never published it. I decided to remedy the situation and make it ASAP. So here it is, the quiche recipe we've been making and loving for the better part of a decade. :) Look for the make-ahead tips at the bottom to cut down on the morning prep time.
The ingredients:
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
3/4 cup ham, minced
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 green or red pepper, diced
3 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 tsp. grated lemon peel
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. dry mustard
Directions: Bake unpricked pie crust for 5 minutes at 425 degrees.
Remove from oven and arrange cheese,
bacon,
and ham in bottom of shell.
Sprinkle with green onions and green or red pepper.
In a medium bowl, combine eggs, cream, lemon peel, salt, and dry mustard. Pour evenly over cheese mixture.
Bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes or until set. Remove from heat and let stand about 10 minutes before serving. Serves 8.
Enjoy!

MAKE AHEAD TIPS:
The night before you can:
Cook and crumble the bacon
Chop the ham, peppers, and green onions
Shred the Swiss cheese
Make and bake the pie crust (it only needs to bake for 5 minutes before adding everything)
In a gallon size Ziploc baggie, combine everything, but the crust and the egg mixture. In the morning, you can put all the ingredients in the crust and throw it in the oven.
