Quiche w/ Bacon, Mushroom, & Cheese

quiche-w-bacon-mushroom-cheese

You’d think that my family has never heard of holiday ham or Christmas turkey.  Our clan does it up big– er, WEIRD I mean.  Since I do all of the shopping/cooking at our house (now), it’s since been tamed down to something that at least resembles a holiday feast.  There was a time when I was 8 and with no drivers license, that Christmas dinner meant scrambled eggs doused with ketchup and canned corn and beans mixed together (I have a great fondness for each of the aforementioned).  That or rice and kimchi jjigae (stewed kimchi soup).  For several years now, we’ve done a Christmas brunch following the ritual Christmas morning presents.  It is only Christmas day and Thanksgiving day that my entire family can get together without the nuisance of work getting in the way.  Here is one of the yummies we’ll be having:
