Ingredients
One pie crust (make
your own or buy one from the store)
5-6 large eggs *
1/4 cup half-n-half
*
1/2 tsp Pepper
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano flakes
3 tablespoons Onion,
chopped
3-4 tablespoons
Orange bell pepper, chopped
3-4 tablespoons
yellow bell pepper, chopped
3-5 strips bacon
1/2 Mozzarella
Cheese, grated
Salsa (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350
degrees
Prepare crust for
one pie bottom and mold into pie pan. Cook bacon and crumble into bite size
pieces, drain and set aside. Sauté bell peppers and onion until union is just
translucent (do not over cook or cook until mushy). Whip together the eggs,
half-n-half, pepper, salt, and oregano until slightly frothy.
In the pie crust,
spread bacon on bottom. Spread onion mixture over bacon. Pour in the egg
mixture. Sprinkle the cheese so it is evenly spread on top of the eggs. Place a
strip of foil around the edges of the pie pan to cover the pie crust. This will
keep the edges of the pie crust from over browning.
Bake uncovered for
45 minutes (check after 35 minutes for doneness) or until knife inserted in
middle comes out clean. Remove foil and cook for 7 minutes more. Let stand to
set-up for 15 minutes. Cut and serve with salsa.
*Egg
substitute can be used instead of the eggs. Follow the package directions to
find the substitute amount for each egg.
