Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb thickly sliced bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 large leeks, white and light green parts only, sliced in thin rounds
6-8 scallions, thinly sliced
sea salt and freshly ground pepper
3 cup steamed, chopped broccoli, drained well
8 oz reserve cheddar, shredded
2 baked 10-inch pie crusts
4 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
2 1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp paprika

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°. Cook bacon in large skillet over medium high heat until crispy, about 7 minutes. Drain bacon, leaving 1 tablespoon of fat in pan. Add leeks and scallions to skillet, season with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat until leeks are softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in broccoli and transfer to a bowl; let cool. Stir in bacon and cheese.
Spoon bacon-and-veggie filling into pie crusts. Whisk eggs with egg yolks and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper; add paprika. Pour custard into crusts and bake for about 30 minutes. Rotate halfway through for even baking, until golden brown on top. Transfer quiches to a rack and cool for 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
