Recipe from the farm: Easy Quiche

Living on a farm and having chickens means sometimes we get overrun with fresh eggs. My family really enjoys a good quiche and this recipe is super fast and easy to throw together for a quick dinner. I like to cook in cast iron so I'll start this recipe by pulling out the good cast iron skillet that is well seasoned, 9 or 10 inch pan. You can use bacon, sausage, hamburger, or really whatever kind of meat you enjoy, or no meat at all. I usually saute the meat up in the pan I'm going to use to cook my quiche. Let it sit there while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. If you're making a veggie quiche you can saute onions, peppers, zucchini, mushroom or whatever veggie suits your fancy. Next get 4 to 6 fresh eggs. I use 6 because it makes a heartier quiche with more leftovers or sometimes no leftovers. Whisk them up in a large mixing bowl. Add about a half a teaspoon or so of salt, pepper to taste, garlic powder or chopped garlic, about a half of a finely chopped onion. You can also saute the onion if you prefer that. I've done both ways and enjoy them the same. Whisk in a half cup of all purpose flour and 1 and a half cups of milk. Then I usually add about a half a cup or so of chopped cheese, either cheddar or mozzarella or whatever you fancy. Mix that very well and pour carefully into the hot cast iron, making sure there's enough grease in the pan from whatever you sauted in there to cover the bottom, at least a tablespoon. Top this off with generous handfuls of cheese and bake at 350 for 45 min or so until fully baked and knife comes out clean. Quick Quiche 8-10 slices of bacon or a pound or half of sausage 4-6 eggs, whisked Salt and pepper to taste Half an onion diced 1/2 all purpose flour 1 and 1/2 cup milk 1 cup or more of cheese, cheddar or mozzarella or any kind. Any other veggies or spices you enjoy.
