Directions
Low Fat Bisquick Crust Bacon and Cheese Quiche,Amazingly, the quiche will form its own crust. I think this quiche tastes best when its made the evening before and heated up the next morning. If you use a blender instead of a whisk, process the Bisquick, eggs, milk, pepper and salt for about 15 seconds; afterwards, by hand mix in the onion and garlic. Optional: Use lb Canadian bacon in place of bacon and top with tomatoes. Or Swiss cheese instead of cheddar.,This was delicious, but I did make a few tweaks that took it out of the “lowfat” category. Used 5 eggs instead of 4, and in place of lowfat milk, used 1 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup 2% milk. For spices, used 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon Badia Adobo with pepper. Instead of lowfat cheddar, used 8 ounces grated cheddar plus 4 ounces grated Swiss. Baked 55-60 minutes until outer ring was brown and puffy and center was set. As it cooled, the edges receded and formed a “crust”, much like a regular quiche.,Not lowfat, but very tasty. Used scissors to cut bacon into small pieces before frying to a crisp. Removed bacon and drained on paper towels. Discarded all but a tablespoon of bacon grease for frying onions/garlic. Doubled the amount of garlic to 2 teaspoons. Used 5 eggs instead of 4. Used 1 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup 2% milk in place of lowfat milk. For spices, used 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon Badia Adobo with pepper. Used 8 ounces grated cheddar plus 4 ounces grated Swiss. Baked 55-60 minutes until outer ring was brown and puffy and center was set. After cooling about 20 minutes, the outer ring was crust-like and perfect. Covered tightly with foil and refrigerated overnight. Sliced into wedges the next morning and heated each breakfast portion in the microwave. Delicious! Next time I may add some steamed, chopped broccoli, or maybe I’ll chop some mushrooms and cook them with the onions and garlic. Oh yeah, I almost forgot…. I didn’t have any Bisquick, so used 1/2 cup of the flour mixture from a box of Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits. I’ll be saving the rest of the box for more quiche!
