Lazy Girl foods: Easy Quiche Lorraine/Reblochon

What's nicer than preparing a quiche on an unusually warm Sunday afternoon? Quiches are in fact really easy to make. Trust me! I'm lazy and they now feature on top of my quickly impress guest list. Today I'm going to add Reblochon, which is one of my favourite cheese in France, made in the Alps. If you don't have this kind of cheese, grated cheese will work just fine. Here's what you need for 3 people :
  • 1 roll of puff pastry (easily found in your supermarket, in France it's called pâte feuilletée).
  • 200 gms diced bacon.
  • 30 gms butter
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup fresh cream
  • 1 cup milk
  • sliced Reblochon (or as much cheese as you want)
  • salt and pepper
  • nutmeg 
  • Spread the puff pastry evenly on the baking pan. Next, make sure you pierce the pastry with a fork. 


  • Fry the diced bacon in a pan for a few minutes. Let it dry on kitchen towels in order to absorb any excess oil.
  • In a salad bowl add the eggs, milk, fresh cream, salt (very little since the bacon is already salty!), pepper and nutmeg. Whisk thoroughly!
  • Spread the diced bacon evenly on your pan. 
  • Add slices of butter alongside the bacon.
  • hmmm. Reblochon. Dice it up and add as much as you wish.

  • Pour the whisked up mixture over the cheese, butter and diced bacon.
  • Place into your oven! (P.S. Remember to preheat your oven at 220° C for 10 mins before placing your Quiche).
  • Let your quiche bake for 45-50 mins at 180° C

and....


Voilà! Easy peasy!
  • Last step, slice. You can serve with tomato salad or avacado salad. Enjoy! :)
