Notes

    • Bacon: We love using thick cut bacon for this recipe because it amps up the bacon flavor, but regular bacon will work just fine. And yes, even turkey bacon!

    • Cheese: You can use either mild or sharp cheddar (we love sharp – again with the flavor – and if you want to swap in shredded Monterey Jack or Swiss, those will also be delicious.

    • Milk: Low fat or whole milk is best for this recipe…if you want to make it extra rich, you can also use half and half. Don’t use skim as it won’t give enough heft to the quiche batter.
