I love a good slice of quiche served with a chopped salad and a soup. It’s a simple lunch that the French have mastered a long time ago.
This bacon sun dried tomato quiche is very easy to make and keeps in the fridge for a few days.

Description
This bacon sun dried tomato quiche has the classic flavor of French cuisine. Packed with caramelized onions, sweet sun dried tomato and salty bacon, it’s become a favorite in our home!
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch deep pie shell
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 onions, sliced in half and cut into thin half moons
- 4 strips bacon, diced
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 6 sun dried tomatoes in oil, patted dry and finely chopped
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF.
- Cook the pie shell for about 11 to 14 minutes (until slightly golden, or follow instructions on the package).Take the pie shell out of the oven and let cool to room temperature.
- Lower the heat to 325 ºF. In a medium size pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and onions and cook for 15 minutes, until caramelized. Transfer the onions to a bowl and let cool, briefly.
- Add the bacon to the pan and cook until crispy. Turn the heat off and transfer to a plate covered with paper towel to remove excess fat. Let cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk, and add the sun dried tomatoes and parmesan. Add the onions and bacon and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes. To find out if the quiche is fully cooked, stick a toothpick in the middle of the quiche. It should be clean when you pull it out. If not, baked for an additional 5 to 10 minutes.
- Take the quiche out of the oven and serve.
Notes
Keep this quiche refrigerated in a storage container, or cover it with plastic wrap or foil, for up to 5 days.
