Directions:
Preheat oven to 400º. Let crust partially thaw about 10-15minutes. Prick with a fork on bottom and sides. Bake about 10-15 minutes to lightly brown. Reduce oven to 325º

If using bacon cut into 2” pieces and cook until crisp. Remove and drain. Remove all but a T of the bacon fat and use to sauté vegetables with butter.

Slice vegetables thinly. If using leeks rinse well to remove sand from between the leaves. Only use the white and light green parts. Sauté in butter until soft, not brown. Season well with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool. Add in bacon if using.

Whisk together heavy cream, eggs, thyme, Parmesan, 1/4 tsp salt and pepper and nutmeg.

Potatoes can be layer on the bottom first. Layer veggie mixture in crust careful to not tear where there are bubbles. Pour custard mixture over. Bake for 45-55 minutes until set. The center will rise then fall when cool.

Let cool before slicing into wedges.

Using Parmesan makes a creamy custard. Get creative, use cubed ham instead of bacon, use other vegetables like broccoli. Have fun.
