Bacon Apple Cheddar Quiche
Quiche is so versatile and delicious it’s great for just about any meal. The balance of sweet and savory in this bacon apple cheddar quiche works just as well for brunch as it does for a dinner paired with a side salad. If you’d like to make it vegetarian just leave out the bacon, it’s just as wonderful with the apples and cheddar.
To really make this dish shine I love to use a white aged cheddar that’s a little sharp like Dubliner cheese. A salad with a tart dressing pairs nicely on the side of this quiche just as well as sautéed green beans or roasted broccoli.
