What’s in our Bacon Broccoli Mushroom Quiche Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1-2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 8 oz Sliced Mushrooms
- 1 1/2 Cup Broccoli Florets, cut into bit size pieces
- 8 slices of crisp cooked Bacon, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack Cheese
- 1 1/2 cups grated Swiss Cheese
- 6 eggs
- 2 cups Half & Half
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- salt
- black pepper
- 2 Deep Dish Frozen Pie Crusts
How to make this quiche with frozen pie crust:
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Using a fork, poke holes in both pie crusts so heat can vent to prevent crust from bubbling up. Bake both pie crusts for about 8 minutes, then remove them and let cool on wire rack. While crusts are cooking, fry bacon until crisp and chop into about 1/2 inch pieces.
Melt butter in large skillet and add mushrooms, raise temperature to med high heat to brown mushrooms. Because of the juice emitted from mushrooms during cooking, mushrooms have a tendency to just boil and become rubbery and tough. Temperature has to be high to brown them, also you can add 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil to help bring the butter up to higher temperature without burning.
Add the broccoli florets and sauté or stir fry until the broccoli is tender and the mushrooms are golden.
Divide your vegetable mixture between the two pie crusts, laying the veggies on the bottom of each pie shell, then add the bacon pieces to each pie.
Equally divide both of the cheeses and spread on top of each of the bacon broccoli mushroom mixture.
Beat eggs in a medium bowl, add half & half, basil, oregano and salt and pepper to taste. Whip well to incorporate all the ingredients together.
Pour the egg mixture into each pie, equally. This is easier if the pies are placed on a cooking sheet prior to pouring and then just slide the rack with the pies into the oven. Make a “tent” with enough aluminum foil to cover both pies to prevent the crust from over browning. Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees F then turn the oven down to 325 degrees F and bake for another 15-20 minutes until the pies are just set in the center. Remove foil and cook 1-2 minutes until golden brown and knife inserted in center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let cool on wire rack prior to serving.
Unlock the secret to the perfect brunch. Our Bacon Broccoli Mushroom Quiche recipe is not only versatile but insanely delicious. Whether you’re a broccoli lover or a mushroom enthusiast, the recipe bends to your preference! And the best part? You can whip it up using a frozen pie crust.
