Name: Broccoli Cheddar Bacon Quiche
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 60 min
Total time: 70 min
Ingredients: 1 9-inch deep dish frozen pie shell; 5 large eggs; 1 cup heavy cream; 1/4 cup mayonnaise; 1 1/2 tsp garlic salt; 1 tsp onion powder; 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard; 1/2 tsp black pepper; 1 cup steamed broccoli florets (roughly chopped); 3 green onion (chopped); 4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled); 1 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (divided)

This cheesy Broccoli Cheddar Bacon Quiche could only get better with the addition of bacon. The smoky undertones that bacon gives to the custard is mouthwatering. I’m not sure who started the saying “real men don’t eat quiche” but clearly they didn’t know my family. My boys will dig into a quiche anytime of day and for that I am truly grateful since, I love making them on a regular basis.

My Love of Quiche

I’m not sure if I love them for the ease of preparation or the fact that they are so versatile. Regardless, various versions of quiche seem to find their way onto my kitchen table rather often and subsequently into my recipe archives, as well. This particular version of quiche has a surprise ingredient. Mayonnaise. It’s not a large amount however, it gives a really creamy texture to the custard as well as a slight twist on flavor. Many broccoli casserole recipes include mayonnaise and I can see why as it goes so well with the broccoli and cheddar cheese in this quiche, too..

Helpful Tips

When making a quiche or pie I recommend that you move it in and out of the oven on a baking sheet. Any size cookie sheet will do, it makes it easier to handle and move from the oven to the counter without breaking the filling in the process and it will also catch any random drips.
If you need to make this quiche in advance, reheat slices gently in the microwave and you’ll be good to go on a busy day.
To reheat the whole quiche, place into a 325°F oven covered loosely with foil, baking for 8-10 minutes or just until heated through.
Another mouthwatering quiche recipe to try is this savory Chicken Quiche from Skinny Taste.
