Pastry for 9-inch pie
12 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1 c. shredded Swiss cheese
4 eggs, beaten
2 c. half & half
3/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. white pepper
1 sm. pkg. sliced mushrooms

Line a quiche dish or pie pan with pastry; trim off excess pastry. Prick bottom and sides with a fork and bake at 425 degrees for 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside until cool.

Sprinkle bacon, cheese and mushrooms evenly onto pie shell. Combine eggs, cream, salt and pepper. Mix well and pour into shell. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 300 degrees and bake 40 minutes or until set.

NOTE: To keep outer pie crust from over cooking, cover with strips of aluminum foil when placing in oven with liquid.

Cooked shrimp may also be added to the above, but if you do, cut the amount of bacon used to half called for in recipe above.
