I love cooking and want to bring you into my kitchen. With every day to day challenges that we have, the last thing you want to do is cook a meal that takes hours to prepare. I hope to inspire you so you too can prepare meals for your family that are kid friendly, husband and dog (ha ha) approved meals that you and your family will love!
Dessert Delight
Bacon Mushroom Quiche with Gruyere and Thyme
I have to admit this from my Holiday (make ahead) meal magazine and not my picture. However, I made this without the mushrooms this morning and will share that pic and recipe with you after this one.
1/2 of a 15 ounce package rolled refrigerated unbaked pie crust (1crust)
4 slices of bacon
1 1/3 cups chopped fresh mushrooms (4 ounces)
1/4 cup chopped green onions (2)
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves (chopped)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 8 ounce carton sour cream
3/4 cups shredded Gruyere cheese (3 ounces)
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Let pie crust stand according to package directions. Ease pie crust into a 9 inch tart pan that has a removable bottom. Press pastry into fluted sides of pan; trip edges. Do not prick pastry. Line pastry with a double thickness of foil. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 4 to 5 minutes or until pastry is set and dry. Remove from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.
In a large skillet cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon and drain on a paper towel, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings in skillet. Crumble bacon; set aside. Add mushrooms to the reserved drippings; cook until mushrooms are tender and liquid is evaporated.
Stir in crumbled bacon, green onions, and thyme. In a medium bowl combine eggs and sour cream. Stir in bacon/mushroom mixture and cheese. Pour into crust.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until light brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for about 10 to 20 minutes to cool. Top with salsa or a topping of your choice.
