Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 | Lean hamburger |
| 1 | Onion |
| 4 | Bacon slices |
| 3 | Eggs |
| 1/2 cup | Mayonnaise |
| 1/2 cup | Half-and-half cream |
| 8 oz | Cheddar cheese |
| – | Swiss cheese |
| – | Garlic powder |
| – | White pepper |
Instructions:
-
Prepare Ingredients: Begin by browning the lean hamburger in a skillet along with chopped onion until cooked through.
-
-
Mix Meat and Bacon: Remove the cooked hamburger and onion from the skillet, and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Add the bacon pieces to the bowl, breaking up any larger clumps with a fork or pastry mixer until you have a fine mix.
-
Prepare Crust: Drain the meat mixture well of any excess grease, then press it into the bottom of a deep-dish pie pan, forming a crust. Set aside.
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
-
Prepare Quiche Filling: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients – eggs, mayonnaise, half-and-half cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and any additional Swiss cheese, garlic powder, and white pepper to taste. Whip the mixture well until smooth and creamy.
-
Assemble and Bake: Pour the prepared filling mixture over the beef “crust” in the pie pan, ensuring it covers the entire surface evenly. Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set.
-
Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing. This helps to set the quiche and makes it easier to serve.
-
Storage: Any leftover quiche can be stored in Ziploc bags or plastic containers and refrigerated for quick and convenient meals over the next 3-5 days. However, note that this quiche does not freeze well.
