Looks DELISH!! Also seems easy, and I think you could lighten it with egg substitute and possibly cut the half and half with 1%.

I cook a pound of bacon, to get a little over a cupful of crumbled bacon. I use whatever I get from a cooked pound. (it varies due to the fat content.) I hope that helped?

Yes, you can cut it with skim milk, 1%, 2% or egg substitute. Great idea for readers. Thank you.

Looks so good.

How much bacon did you cook to get the one cup crumbled?

Sounds great! Quiche is so versatile. I consider it like pizza, with whatever toppings and ingredients you might like.
