- 8 ounces bacon
- 1 (9 inch) unbaked 9 inch pie crust

- 1 cup shredded monterey Jack cheese
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 5 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 cups cream
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup diced green bell peppers
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cook bacon over medium high heat until evenly brown and remove from heat. Crumble the bacon and set aside.
Saute onions and green bell peppers just long enough to soften them up a little bit. Set aside.
Lay out the pie crust in a 9 inch glass pie plate. Evenly pour bacon upon surface of the pie crust.
In a small bowl, combine cheddar cheese, monterey jack cheese and flour. In another bowl beat together the eggs, cream, onion and green bell peppers. Add cheese mixture; stir well. Pour mixture over bacon and pie crust.
Bake in preheated oven for an hour or more while the egg mixture raises, firms up, and becomes golden on the surface.
Let quiche rest and cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Eat!
