Recipe by AZPARZYCH

Original recipe calls for a 3 oz bottle of bacon bits rather than fresh-cooked bacon. This is what I have been looking for; I love quiche, but most have spinach or asparagus and DH does not like that part... *Note: It may look like the egg mixture will not fit in the crust after the cheese is added; I took out about 1/2 a cup of cheese, poured the egg in and then sprinkled the remaining cheese on top using a fork to mash the cheese down into the egg mixture. Filled the crust perfectly and it did not overflow.*
