This is a great recipe!! No need to saute the green onions in oil at all. They taste wonderful when you cook the bacon in the microwave, dice and then throw that and the green onions in the bottom of the pie shell and pour egg mixture on top. Saves time! I love quiche because you can substitute for ingredients you have on hand.

I didn't use the extra oil either, but wish I had. The bacon grease was a bit "gritty and brown" for the green onions, I thought. All in all though, I thought the recipe was great. I used cheddar this time, will try swiss or a combo mix next time. Use milk instead of cream. The mustard and nutmeg worked for me! All in all, we thought it was great!
