1 (10 inch) pastry shell, unbaked
1/2 lb. bacon, fried crisp and crumbled or 1/2 lb. cooked ham, cut in small cubes
4 oz. Jack or Swiss cheese, chopped or grated
2 tbsp. butter, melted
3 eggs, beaten
2 c. whole milk + 1 tbsp. flour
1/8 tsp. white pepper
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
Drop or two of Tabasco

Place bacon and cheese in bottom of shell, mix all other ingredients, strain and pour into shell. Bake 30 to 40 minutes at 375 degrees, or until center is firm like custard.

Pour some of the milk into a jar, put flour on top, put lid on, shake and add to rest of the ingredients. (P.S. I enjoy adding 1/2 cup chopped and sauteed onions. If you want to add some zing to your quiche, add a can of chopped green chilies.)
