Quiche Amish Appetizer Recipe

Pre-bake the pastry crust for 5 minutes in a preheated 350° F. oven; this prevents it from becoming soggy. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the pastry shell. Grill the bacon or fry it in a heavy skillet until crisp; remove and drain on paper towels. Crumble the bacon and add to cheese. Use the bacon fat to sauté the onions, mushrooms, and parsley until golden brown. Add the flour and salt and stir until well blended. Add to the cheese and bacon. Beat the eggs lightly in a bowl. Add the cream. Pour over the cheese mixture. Bake in a 375° F. oven for 45 minutes, or until firm and golden brown. Serve warm
