Summary:
Slice into this comforting quiche lorraine, filled with crispy crumbled bacon, sliced tomatoes, eggs, and pepper jack cheese.
INGREDIENTS
- 9- inch deep dish pastry shell
- 4 strips bacon
- 2 roma tomatoes sliced
- 3 eggs
- 5 ounce can
evaporated milk about 2/3 cup - 1/2 pound pepper jack cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese shredded
- 1 teaspoon
dry minced onion - 1 teaspoon
dried basil - 1/4 teaspoon pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- Bake the pastry shell for 5 minutes at 350 F. Prick the shell a few times with a fork before baking. You can bake the frozen shell — no need to thaw.

- Scatter about two-thirds of the shredded pepper jack cheese over the pastry shell.
- Add half of the sliced tomatoes, half of the crumbled bacon, minced onion, and basil over the pie.
- Scatter remaining pepper jack cheese over the pie.
- Beat eggs, milk and pepper together. Pour over the pie.
- Decorate the top of the pie with the remainder of the sliced tomatoes and crumbled bacon. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake the pie at 350 F for about 50 minutes or until it starts to brown. Let cool for 30 minutes before cutting into it.

Let the quiche cool down (about 30 minutes) after baking so that it hardens a bit. Otherwise it’ll be too soft and oozy when you slice into it, making it more difficult to cut neat slices.

Nice video! I’ll have to try the extra layer of tomatoes and bacon! You can also use heavy whipping cream in place of the evaporated milk, which is very good and is how I’ve made it in recent years. 🙂
Thanks, glad you like the video!! Yes I might try heavy whipping cream next time because for some reason Trader Joe’s doesn’t sell evaporated milk 🙂
This looks wonderful! I could easily eat this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and not get tired of it!
This quiche looks so good. Love the addition of tomatoes, it’s so good with the eggs and cheese. Yummy!
