Saffron and Honey

Eat Chic

May 13, 2011

Spinach and bacon quiche

The fact that I love quiche is well-documented (you can search s&h for a post called ‘Quiche!’).

And Dorie’s recipe has been a standby for parties, potlucks, and casual dinners (with a side of salad, it’s just enough) for me for quite a bit now.

I used some pancetta, cut into lardons, and added some other green herbs (thyme, rosemary – never hurts!) that I had to the mix. Quiche is great like that – it is so flexible and you can add whatever you like.

More than one quiche

The only rule is: don’t make just one quiche, it is inevitably never enough.

    So true on your rule! When I bake I do try to make two; just as easy and it always makes someone feel very special!!

    I’m going to start enforcing your rule “one quiche is never enough”. I completely agree (even though I made only one this time).

      It’s something I learned over time! At my housewarming a few months ago, even three quiches was not nearly enough :).

    I made mine with pancetta too! Love it. Yours has such as golden crust!

      That would be the cheese, I think :). Great minds think alike!

    Lovely quiches. You are absolutely right,
    one is never enough. Hubby and I enjoyed
    this with a little broth, and it was enough.
    I know Tricia and her family are going to
    love theirs, I can’t wait to hear her take
    on this recipe. I just read through the
    recipe for the goat cheese and bacon quiche, and I definitely have to give that one a try.

    I love that you added fresh herbs, as I noticed that the recipe didn’t call for any. Your quiche looks quite tasty! Thanks for commenting on my blog. I’ve added yours to my Google Reader and look forward to reading your future posts!

      Aw thanks! Looking forward to reading more of your posts as well. And I think you can’t go wrong with a little rosemary, thyme or parsley everywhere :).

    Ah – looks great! I agree, quiche should always be made in pairs…

    Oh boy, oh boy. How I wish I would have made two quiches like you did. What a good idea you had. Oh well, next time I will :). I love the herb additions you made. I used tomatoes on mine too. Loved this recipe! Your TWO look yummy!!!

    These quiches are wonderful, I am a great quiche person, love your variations. I hope I am not being forward sharing my old base with you but you might like to try it, it is so quick:, 1 cup flour, 1 cup rolled oats, 1/4 cup olive oil. 1/4 cup water. s&p. Mix and press into the dish. Sometimes I add sunflower seeds too! Yours look so gorgeous I may make a baseless one today, but then I am sure it will have another name! It is good Love the Body Food! c
