Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Crust

    In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut in the cold unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Roll Out the Dough

    After chilling, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the pie dish, pressing gently into the sides. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges.

  3. 3

    Pre-bake the Crust

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork, line with parchment paper, and add pie weights. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove weights and parchment and bake for an additional 5 minutes until lightly golden.

Filling Preparation

  1. 4

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the hickory bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

  2. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, sauté the diced zucchini, asparagus, and squash until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add the chopped spinach and fire-roasted sweet peppers, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until spinach is wilted. Remove from heat.

  3. 6

    Mix the Egg Mixture

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Stir in the crumbled bacon, sautéed vegetables, cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese, and goat cheese.

Assembly and Baking

  1. 7

    Combine and Bake

    Pour the filling mixture into the pre-baked crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the filling is set and the top is golden.

  2. 8

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Side Preparation

  1. 9

    Cook Skillet Potatoes

    In a skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 10-15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 10

    Cook Sausage Patties

    In another skillet, cook the house sausage patties according to package instructions until browned and cooked through.

  3. 11

    Prepare Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens with pickled red onion, tossing gently to combine. Drizzle with olive oil and vinegar if desired.
