Onion and Cheese Pie





This is a yummy quiche that makes a great light meal, when paired with a tossed salad. Enjoy!

One pie shell *
4-6 slices of crisp bacon **
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp margarine
8 oz shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 C. shredded cheddar cheese
1 Tbsp flour
2 eggs, slightly beaten
3/4 C sour cream
1/8 tsp pepper
Dash of Paprika

In a small bowl, toss the cheeses with the flour and set aside.
Saute onion slices in margarine; until limp, not browned.
Place the cheese and flour mixture in the bottom of the unbaked pie shell, top with the onions.
In a small bowl, combine the eggs, sour cream and pepper and pour over the onions. Sprinkle with bacon bits and paprika.
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. Let stand for 5-10 minutes so the eggs can firm up after baking.

* I use Pillsbury Pie Crusts- The kind you unroll and place in a pie dish.
** This time I used Oscar Meyer Real Bacon Bits instead of cooking "real" bacon. And I have to say, it was wonderful. Look for it in your grocery store where the salad dressings are. This way you can add as much or as little bacon as you would like. I used about 3/4 of the package.
