Preheat the oven to 350ยบ F. If your pie crust is frozen, remove from the freezer and allow to thaw for about 20 minutes. If it's not already in a pan, place the dough into a deep dish pie pan and crimp the edge. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork.
Pre-bake your crust for 8 minutes. Place a piece of parchment paper on the bottom of your crust and cover with dry beans, rice or pie weights. This will prevent your crust from shrinking or bubbling when you bake it. After the crust is lightly baked, set it aside.
Meanwhile, fry up your bacon and drain most of the fat out of the pan.
Cook the onion in just a bit of the bacon fat until translucent.
In a large bowl, mix the eggs, cream, milk and spices until well combined.
Layer the Swiss and Colby Jack cheese into the bottom of the pie crust, then top with onions and bacon.
Pour the egg mixture on top of the cheeses, bacon and onions. Sprinkle the parmesan on top. Carefully place the pie pan into the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the egg is mostly set and the crust is browned. If the crust browns too quickly, place a sheet of aluminum foil over the top of the dish.
Let the quiche sit for 10 minutes before cutting. Serve it with a nice green salad for a well-balanced meal.
