Bacon & Cheese Quiche' Recipe
My family loves this dish. People that don't care for spinach love this Quiche'. You can prepare it as a main or side dish, but I find that it's a meal in itself.
When you cook often, you get tired of eating the same foods continuously, so, I'm always looking to broaden my horizons. If you appreciate good food then you won't be satisfied with the status quo. Enjoy!
