Pillsbury Pie Crust

Ingredients

  • 1 crust from 1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count)
  • 3 slices thick cut bacon, diced
  • 1 large leek, sliced, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen™ Organic Tomatoes Fire Roasted, drained
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shredded flavorful cheese (Swiss, gouda, cheddar, etc)

    Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lay the prepared pie crust in a quiche or pie pan.
  • 2

    While the bacon is frying, to save time heat the butter in another skillet and cook the leek over medium high heat until softened, 5-7 minutes.

    Beat the eggs, half and half and salt in a mixing bowl with a wire whisk until combined.

More About This Recipe

  • I've come to realize something. Most people love a good quiche but rarely make it themselves. Why is that? It looks too time-consuming? Too difficult? They don't own an official "quiche pan" and think they can't make quiche without it? Whatever the reason, it's time to de-bunk a few myths. 1) Prep time is like 10 minutes max. That = quick! 2) You slap down some premade Pillsbury pie crust (p-p-p...it's all about the "p's", baby), chop up a leek, fry a little bacon, beat a few eggs, open up a can of tomatoes, shred a little cheese, and slide it in the oven. That = easy! 3) Everyone owns a pie pan. That = you can make quiche, too! So all that = quick, easy and accessible. And did I already mention this is a BLT-packed quiche? Enjoy!
