Quiche Lorraine


Another one of my favorites, I love quiche and this always turns out perfect! Its like a little piece of France in my boring old kitchen.

1 9-inch unbaked pie crust
1 cup (4oz.) shredded swiss cheese
6 slices bacon, coked and crumbled
3/4 cup ham, minced
2 green onions, sliced and chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
3 eggs slightly beaten
1 cup light cream
1/2 t grated lemon peel
1/2 t salt
1/4 t dry mustard

Bake unpricked pastry shell for 5 min. at 425. Remove from oven and arrange cheese, bacon and ham in bottom of shell. Sprinkle with green onion and green pepper.

In medium bowl combine eggs, cream, lemon peel, salt and dry mustard. Pour evenly over cheese mixture. Bake at 325 for 45 min. or until set. Remove from heat and let stand about ten min before serving. But pie into 6 servings.
