Denver Dinner

Quiche
3 eggs
1 1/2- 2 cups heavy cream or half and half (they now have fat free half and half)
S&P to taste
dash nutmeg
cheese
crispy crumpled bacon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend all ingredients together and place in a pre-cooked pie crust. (Even if your crust is home made you need to pre-bake in order to ensure it will be cooked through on the bottom). Place in upper two thirds of oven and bake 25-30 min or until quiche is firm and golden on top.

This is a traditional french quiche, but in truth they are wonderful with a multitude of ingredients including asparagus, diced ham, tomatoes, flaked salmon, green/yellow/red peppers etc. Really anything you like in an omelet!

It been so long since I have had a quiche. I'll have to try this... Its naturally cholesterol free, right? LOL

Actually if you use the egg beaters (egg substitute) and the fat free half and half I think it will fit in Richards new diet! You can also substitute turkey bacon for regular (I recommend the oscar myer, I've tried them all it's the best) and the laughing cow cheese is also cholesterol friendly. White cheddar is more friendly than yellow cheddar and has a great depth of flavor (it's cheepest at costco) And it's all totally yummy.
