Description

INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1 Preheat oven to 350°F Chop bacon into small pieces (about 1/2-inch thick). Add to a skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until crisp and brown (about 5-7 minutes). Transfer bacon to paper towel lined plate to drain. Discard bacon fat, leaving 1 tbsp. in pan and return over medium-low heat. Add chopped onions and season with a pinch of salt. Sauté for 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender and brown. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
STEP 2  Meanwhile, whisk 6 eggs. Add 2 cups (16 oz) of half and half, and season with 1/2 tsp. pepper. Shred the gouda cheese. 
STEP 3  Set the pie shells on a large rimmed baking sheet. Divide the bacon, caramelized onions, and shredded gouda across both pie shells. Evenly pour egg mixture over the filling.
STEP 4  Transfer baking sheet with quiches to preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is slightly puffed and no longer jiggly. The quiches are set when a knife comes out dry when inserted in the center. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

*Make Ahead & Freeze: Fully cooked quiche can be frozen for 1-2 months. Cool the baked quiche completely then set on a baking sheet in the freezer. Once frozen, wrap the quiche tightly with plastic wrap, then wrap in a foil. When ready to enjoy, remove quiche from freezer, unwrap, and place directly in preheated 350°F oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until heated through.
