Roadside Diner Cheeseburger Quiche


My mini-chef was with me again this evening in the kitchen.  She helped by stirring the burger mixture and taste-testing both the tomatoes and bacon.  We even got in a counting lesson as we had to crack  eggs!

Oh - this recipe is a keeper.  Very, very much a keeper!

Roadside Diner Hamburger Quiche
~  adapted from Taste of Home February/March 2010

1 sheet refrigerated pie pastry
3/4 lb ground beef
2 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup dill pickle relish
1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon
5 eggs
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup 2% milk
2 tsp prepared mustard
2 tsp hot pepper sauce
1/4 tsp pepper
1 1/2 cups (6 oz) shredded cheddar cheese

Unroll pastry into a 9-inch deep dish pie pan, flute edges and set aside.  In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain.  Stir in the tomatoes, onion, relish and bacon.  Transfer to prepared pastry.

In a large bowl, whisk eggs, cream, milk, mustard, pepper sauce and pepper.  Pour over beef mixture.  Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake at 375 for 50-60 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary.  Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
