Bacon Cheeseburger Quiche for the Meatlover!


This dish is packed full of protein and flavor!  Super yummy, really easy.  I am a big ground beef fan - add some onions, eggs, and cheese and this was perfection!
I baked mine in a Pampered chef  baking dish that is a little bit larger than a regular pie dish.  My cooking time was shortened by 10 minutes.

Bacon Cheeseburger Quiche  (6 servings)
Ingredients: 1 lb. very lean hamburger
1 small chopped onion
4 slices crisp-cooked bacon, chopped in bits
3 eggs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup half-n-half
8 oz. shredded chedder or swiss cheese
garlic powder to taste (optional)
white pepper


Preparation Method:


1
Brown hamburger in skillet with onion. Remove and mix in bowl with bacon pieces, breaking up any larger clumps with a fork or pastry mixer until you have a fine mix. Drain well of any excess grease and press into the bottom of a deep-dish pie pan. Set aside.
2
Preheat oven to 350°F.
3
Combine remaining ingredients in mixer bowl and whip well. Pour mixture over beef "crust" and bake 40-45 minutes until top is browned and "set". Cool 15-20 minutes before slicing. This can be packaged in Ziplocs or plastic containers for meals quickly microwaved over the next 3-5 days. (Does not freeze well, though.)
