I always thought that a "flavorful" quiche had. Fresh spring asparagus and salty, savory bacon are an unbeatable combination in this simple but satisfying quiche. This asparagus and bacon quiche is fabulous on its own, or with a light side dish. Hearty and creamy, the asparagus gives it a nice texture while the maple bacon gives it just a touch of sweetness. If you don't like maple bacon, that's fine, just use smoked instead, I just happened to have some maple.
