Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a skillet, fry bacon until crisp. Crumble and set aside. Pour out excess grease but don’t clean the pan.
Melt butter in the same skillet. Add onions and cook for a few minutes. Add mushrooms and artichokes and cook for a few more minutes. Salt mixture to taste. Remove from heat and allow to cool for about 20 minutes.
Roll out pie crust and press into deep dish tart pan. (May also use 2 standard pie crusts for this recipe.) In a large bowl, beat eggs with cream. Add grated cheese, salt and pepper, and set aside. (Add cayenne pepper if you’d like a little kick.)
With a slotted spoon, add mushroom mixture into egg/cream mixture. Stir together. Add bacon and stir. Add parsley or chives, if desired.
Pour into pie crust and press to submerge ingredients. Cover loosely with foil, place on a baking sheet, and bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour. Bake for slightly longer if quiche is overly jiggly.
Remove from oven and allow to set for ten minutes before serving. Remove quiche from pan and slice into wedges. |

Notes: It’s a good thing this quiche is so delicious. Though you can use this recipe to make two quiches in a standard pie pans, I like to make one big one in a deep french tart pan so there’s a much higher filling-to-crust ratio; the pans are available at Williams-Sonoma or any cooking or baking supply. And the filling for this quiche is totally adaptable—throw in asparagus tips, broccoli, and whatever cheeses you have in your fridge. In addition, the filling can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge until you’re ready to pour it into the crust and bake it.
