Diana's Quiche

serves 6
1 - 9-inch unbaked pie shell
2 Cups of shredded cheese (cheddar, swiss or mozzarella -- I've tried them all)
3 Tablespoons sliced green onion(optional -- 6 slices of cooked, crumbled bacon)
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 1/2 Cups half-and-half
Dash pepper
Dash nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese to sprinkle on top of quiche

Sprinkle cheese and onion (and bacon if desired) over the bottom of the pie shell. Beat eggs, cream, nutmeg, pepper and salt. Pour into pie shell. (I added some grape tomatoes sliced in half to the top. Sometimes I sprinkle fresh herbs, like basil, too.) Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake in 375 degree oven 30 - 35 minutes (or until fairly dry.)Let stand 10 minutes before serving. (Leave it in the oven if you can.)
