NUTRITIONAL INFO PER SERVE (6 serves)

307 Cal |  20.2 Fats |  8.1 Carbs | 33.5g Protein

 

INGREDIENTS

• 6 large eggs
• 350 ml milk
• 170 g grated cheese (cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese, or mozzarella)
• 450 g short cut bacon, chopped
• 200 portabella mushrooms, sliced
• 1 red onion, finely chopped
• Handful of fresh spring onions, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• Salt & pepper to taste

 

STEP BY STEP

1) Preheat your oven to 190°C. Grease a 9 inch (23 cm) tart pan with butter and set aside.
2) Cook the bacon in a pan until it’s slightly crispy, remove and set aside on a plate covered with a paper towel to soak up additional fats. Using the same pan saute the mushrooms until tender and lightly browned. Chop the bacon, red onion, and spring onion and set aside.
3) Combine the milk and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Whisk together until well combined. Add the bacon, mushroom, cheese, red onion, spring onion and seasoning to the egg and milk mixture. Stir well to combine.
5) Pour the mixture into the prepared tart pan. If necessary, stir to make sure the fillings are evenly distributed throughout the quiche batter.
6) Bake the quiche for 45 – 50 minutes until golden and set, remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
