INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 🌱 1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into ½-inch pieces

  • Meat

    • 🥓 10 slices bacon

  • Dough & Shells

    • 2 (8-inch) unbaked pie shells

  • Eggs & Dairy

    • 🥚 1 egg white, lightly beaten
    • 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
    • 🥚 4 large eggs
    • 🥛 1 ½ cups half-and-half cream

  • Spices

    • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

2

Place asparagus in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water. Cover and cook until tender but still firm, 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and cool.

3

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.

4

Brush pie shells with beaten egg white. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and steamed asparagus into pie shells; sprinkle Swiss cheese over bacon and asparagus.

5

Beat eggs, half-and-half, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined. Pour egg mixture on top of cheese.

6

Bake quiches in the preheated oven until filling is set, about 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before serving.
