Fun for brunch or "breakfast for dinner", quiche is easy to make and delicious to eat.
Ingredients:
6 eggs (I used three duck eggs and three chicken eggs)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 cup heavy cream
Pinch cayenne pepper
Pinch sea salt
Fresh ground black pepper
1/2 small white onion (chopped)
1 small carrot shredded
2-3 slices pre-cooked bacon (chopped)
1 cup good shredded cheese (no "cheeze" or "whiz" please)
2 tbsp potato starch
3 cups fresh spinach or chard (chopped)
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
1-2 tbsp butter (to grease pie dish)
Step 1: Buy good eggs
Rich orange yolks are the sign of a winner.
Step 2: Season
Add cayenne and black pepper, sea salt, and heavy cream to the eggs and mix thoroughly.
Step 3: Prepare your "crust"
In a grease pie dish, combine onion, bacon, cheese, and carrots. Add enough potato starch to coat and press lightly to the edges of the dish.

Bake the crust in an oven preheated to 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
Step 5: Go green
Remove the pre-baked crust from the oven and fill with greens. Pour the egg mixture over the greens and put back into the oven for an additional 15 minutes.
Step 6: The final countdown
Remove the quiche from the oven and sprinkle with grated Parmesan or Romano cheese.
Step 7: Chow down
After you remove your quiche from the oven, let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Enjoy along with salsas, sour cream, or additional bacon.
