      Yield: 6 Servings
 
           Pastry for a Single-Crust
           - Pie
      6 sl Bacon
    1/2 c  Chopped onion
      5 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
  1 1/4 c  Half & half or light cream
    1/4 ts Salt
        ds Ground nutmeg
  1 1/2 c  Shredded Emmenthaler cheese
      1 tb All-purpose flour
           Chopped fresh tomato (opt)
           Snipped fresh parsley (opt)
 
  Set oven @ 450ºF/232ºC.
  
  Prepare Pastry for a Single-Crust Pie. On a lightly
  floured surface, use your hands to slightly flatten
  pastry. Roll pastry from center to edges into a circle
  about 12" in diameter. Wrap pastry circle around the
  rolling pin. Unroll into a 9" pie plate. Ease pastry
  into pie plate without stretching it. Trim pastry to 1/2
  inch beyond edge of pie plate. Fold under extra pastry
  even with the plate's edge. Crimp edge as desired. Do not
  prick pastry.
  
  Line the unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of
  heavy foil. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 6 to
  8 minutes more or until pastry is golden brown. Remove
  from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 325ºF/165ºC. (Pastry
  shell should still be hot when filling is added; do not
  partially bake pastry shell ahead of time.)
  
  Meanwhile, in a very large skillet cook bacon until crisp
  or cook turkey bacon according to package directions.
  Drain, reserving 1 tablespoon of the drippings. Crumble
  bacon finely; set aside. Cook onion in the reserved
  drippings over medium heat until tender; drain.
  
  In a large bowl stir together eggs, half-and-half, salt,
  and nutmeg. Stir in crumbled bacon and onion. In a small
  bowl combine shredded cheese and flour; add to egg
  mixture. Mix well.
  
  Pour egg-cheese mixture into the hot, baked pastry shell.
  Bake in the 325ºF/165ºC oven for 50 to 55 minutes or until
  a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. If
  necessary to prevent overbrowning, cover edge of crust
  with foil for the last 10 to 20 minutes of baking. Let
  stand for 10 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish
  with tomato and parsley.
