How to Make Bacon Green Chili Quiche
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Blind bake a 9-inch prepared pie crust for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden. (Place pie weights or dried beans on parchment paper to prevent bubbling)
- Sprinkle 4 ounces of crumbled cooked bacon evenly over the pre-baked crust.
- Distribute 1 cup of chopped green chilies over the bacon.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions over the chilies.
- In a bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Sprinkle evenly over the bacon and chilies.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream (half and half), and a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture gently into the pie crust.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the quiche rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
