For my sister’s Bridal Shower, I created this Black Forest Bacon Quiche recipe. It turned out so well that I had to make it again to share! It was really nerve-racking not being able to taste it before it was served at the shower (can’t really cut a slice out and then bring the rest to the party), but it was a winner. Whew! 
Everything for the recipe can be found at Trader Joe’s! The Black Forest Bacon is so flavorful; you have to be careful not to eat it all before it goes into the quiche :) 
Cook up the bacon until it’s nice and crispy. Quiche is squishy enough, you want to add some depth to it. 
Caramelize the onions in the bacon grease, because why not?! 
Bake all of the goodness up in a springform pan 
And remove it once cooled to show off the beautiful crust. 
Slice and enjoy!

Remove onions to a plate and set aside.
-
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, milk, and salt.
