Quiche in a slow cooker?

Yes!

I knew it would work because it seems like almost anything can be slow cooked these days. I just didn’t know how easy and downright good it would be.

I had never had turkey bacon up until now. While I do not think I will serve it alone any time soon (too much like the thin consistency of dried beef), it was very flavorful in this healthy recipe. We had it for dinner with a side of salad. Yum.

6 oz package turkey bacon, chopped
1 (15 ounce) package Alexia Oven Reds (olive oil, Parmesan and garlic frozen potato wedges), cut into bite-size pieces (Allow to thaw for a few minutes to make it easier to cut the potatoes)

1 Vidalia onion, chopped
6 ounces cheddar cheese (low fat, if you like), shredded
6 large eggs
1 1/2 cups skim milk
2 tablespoons minced chives
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup Bisquick Heart Smart

‘Warrior Lord’ is from the new album by Minneapolis-based band Poliça.

Dreamy, trippy and half singing, half murmur mumbling, it’s lovely stuff.
