Quiche in the Morning, Quiche in the Evening, Quiche at Supper Time

Quiche is a delicious way of covering vegetables in butter and cheese and convincing small, picky children to eat them. We always have leftovers too so it's great for a hearty breakfast or lunch.

Swiss chard, Red Bell Pepper, and Bacon Quiche

For pie crust:
2/3 c. flour
1/2 c. wheat germ (I use toasted)
1/3 c. oats
6 T butter
3 T cold water

Mix flour, oats & wheat germ. Cut in butter. Add enough water to work into a ball with your hands and press this dough into a pie plate.

For filling:
small bunch swiss chard
medium red bell pepper
6 strips fried bacon
salt
pepper
3 eggs
1/3 c. milk
1/3 c. mayonnaise
1/3 c. yogurt
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese

Chop vegetables & bacon and add to pie shell. Lightly salt & pepper.
In a medium bowl, beat eggs. Stir in milk, mayonnaise, and yogurt. Stir in cheese. Pour this mix over vegetables. Bake in preheated oven at 350° for 35 minutes. Let cool before serving.
