1. Prepare the Ingredients

1. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy (~8-10 minutes). Drain on paper towels, then crumble.

3. Optional: If using veggies (spinach, mushrooms, onions), sauté them in a little bacon grease for extra flavor.

2. Mix the Egg Custard

1. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, sour cream, salt, pepper, and paprika until smooth.
2. Stir in shredded cheese, crumbled bacon, and any veggies (if using).

3. Bake the Quiche

1. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish.
2. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted comes out clean.
3. Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
