Recipe for Duck Egg Quiche with Bacon or Fetta, kale and broccoli

This recipe for quiche is for 2 dishes I use 2x10inch pie plates. Makes one with Kale, Feta, Broccoli or asparagus and one with bacon instead of Feta. Mom made quiche when I was growing up and I love them.

 Ingredients

  • 2 Pie crust (Pilsbury works well)
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 cups fresh kale, spinach and sorrel from the field
  • 2 clove garlic from the field
  • 6-8 duck eggs
  • 1 1/2 cup milk
  • 3 cups shredded cheddar and/or monterey jack cheese
  • salt and pepper
  • handful of fresh herbs, oregano, thyme, rosemary chopped finely
  •  1/2 lb bacon fried, cooked and ready finely chopped

This is a great way to eat lots of eggs. Right now we are getting 4 duck and 4 chicken eggs a day. They are definitely free range
