Ingredients

  • 12 ounces bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil

  • 5 egg whites

  • 2 Tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 Tablespoon minced fresh chives

Instructions

  • Pour egg mixture into a greased 10 inch pie plate or similar sized baking pan.

  • Garnish with fresh minced chives and cut into slices. Quiche can be eaten warm, cold, or at room temperature.

Notes

Storing & Reheating

Leftovers can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Reheat individual slices in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, checking every 30 seconds to prevent over-heating. You can also reheat the rest of the pan in the oven at 350°, covered, for 20-30 minutes or until warmed through. This recipe also freezes well after baking and can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months. To do so, cool the quiche completely after baking, wrap it in plastic wrap and cover it tightly with foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, unwrap it and bake from frozen at 350° for 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
