Broccoli, Potato and Egg Pie with Cheddar and Bacon

Okay, as you can tell I'm still on my Broccoli kick.   I'm that kind 

of person......if I get stuck on something I can eat it for a long time 

much to my families dismay.  Well, they can just relax because 

next I'm on to my Oscar night party and not one thing has broccoli 

in it.  So there......  ;)

I found this recipe on the Cabot cheese website.   You can click 

here for the recipe.  Jim and I order cheese from them quite often 

and when I ran across this dish I really wanted to try this technique 

for the crust.  It uses a roll of Pillsbury bread sticks.  Yeah, that's what 

I thought but it worked.  

You pinch the bread stick dough together and spiral it around like 
you are making a clay pot or something.  It calls for a pie plate but 
I wanted to use my new tart tin that Jim got me for Christmas so I 
opted for that.  It cooked up beautifully!  If you like a little doughier 
crust you could use this in place of pie crust on just about any quiche.

This egg pie would be great anytime and would be terrific in a lunch 

box as well.  It reheats beautifully!   Now.....I wonder what my next kick 

will be?
