4. Mini Quiche ½ package crescent dough 2 slices bacon
2 oz monetary jack cheese
1 scallion
1 egg
¼ cup heavy cream
Dash of pepper
Dash of salt
Pinch of nutmeg
Preheat oven to 375.
Unroll crescent dough carefully. Cut in half, lengthwise, and share with next kitchen.
Spray 6 muffin cups with cooking spray.
Using biscuit cutter or inverted cup, cut dough into 5 round pieces slightly larger than the muffin cups. Use scraps to form the 6th round piece of dough.
Place each round into the muffin pan, so that the dough forms a cup.
Shred cheese and sprinkle evenly on the bottom of the dough in the muffin pan.
Twist bacon and place on plate. Cook on high for 2 minutes in the microwave.
Place bacon on paper towel to blot excess grease.
Cut up bacon into little pieces and place on top of cheese in the 6 baking cups.
Clean scallion and slice thinly. Sprinkle over bacon.
Thoroughly mix cream, egg, pepper, salt, and nutmeg.
Place about 1 T. of mixture over the other ingredients in each cup.
Bake for about minutes.

8. Reflection I learned Overall experience was very good.
The importance of using a pastry blender for shortcakes
Frozen and fresh ingredients can be used interchangeably
It takes a significant amount of time to plan and prepare meals.
What to do when I run out of an ingredient.
Overall experience was very good.
Family loved that now I can make the family recipe.
