Fabulous Friday - Breakfast Style

Happy Friday Everyone! It's here - another edition of Fabulous Friday! I decided this week to focus on Breakfast.

Who doesn't like Breakfast? Mr. Potts and I will often indulge in Brinner - Breakfast for Dinner. It could range from French toast to waffles. Eggs over easy and hashbrowns to a breakfast casserole. Honey Nut Cheerios with fresh fruit to a breakfast panini.

My department has been bringing in breakfast on Friday's recently and so I signed up for today's. Last night I pulled together my favorite quiche - you'll find the recipe at the end of the post.

I also had to look for amazing breakfast pictures. Once I started looking, I knew I'd have to share them with you!

Mrs. Potts' Three Cheese and Bacon Quiche

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces bacon bits
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 3 ounces shredded Swiss cheese
  • 3 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 ounces shredded Asiago cheese
  • 2 graham cracker pie crusts
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 1/2 cup half-and-half cream


Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the bacon, onions, and cheeses.
  3. Mix the eggs and half and half in a bowl. Mix the egg mixture and the cheese mixture and pour into crusts.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake for an additional 35 minutes, until top of quiche begins to turn brown.

I use graham cracker crusts with my quiche. It adds a sweetness to it while the onion carmalizes and the bacon adds a hint of smokiness. Enjoy!

Happy Friday!!

They all look delicious...but, I am soooo not a breakfast fan! I usually put off eating it for as long as possible so I can just skip to lunch!

Umm wow, that all looks amazing! Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day (though I prefer it later in the day when I'm more hungry-I'm not too hungry in the morning). Hubs and I love to do breakfast for dinner at least once a week! It's the only time where I have enough time to make waffles!

It's 7:45am and this post has me craving something yummy and delicious for breakfast. But, since it's just me at home this morning I'll settle for my usual - honey wheat english muffin toasted and topped with Nutella ;)

Definitely going to try the recipe you shared. My son loves quiche...or egg pie, as he calls it.
