Meat Crust Quiche

Cultural Context

The Meat Crust Quiche is a creative twist on the traditional French quiche, which typically features a pastry crust. Originating from the Lorraine region, quiches were originally made with eggs and cream, but this variation adds a hearty meat base, making it a filling option for brunch or dinner. Today, it is enjoyed in various forms around the world, often customized with different meats and vegetables.

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

3

Add chopped bacon to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes.

4

Remove excess fat from the skillet and add diced onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

5

Stir in chopped spinach and diced red bell pepper; cook until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.

6

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.

7

Spread the cooked meat mixture evenly in a greased pie dish to form the crust.

8

Pour the egg mixture over the meat crust, ensuring even distribution.

9

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the egg mixture.

10

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.

11

Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

12

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
