Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F° (175 C°). Grease a 9" (23 cm) pie plate with butter.
- Place the bacon in a cold skillet. Cook over medium heat until crispy, turning occasionally to brown evenly. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, and then cut into the bacon small pieces. Set aside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, and seasonings until well combined.
- Place the broccoli and bacon pieces into the pie plate. Pour the egg mixture over the broccoli and bacon, and sprinkle the cheese on top.
- Bake on the middle oven rack for 20-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

I am glad this turned out well! Thank you for letting us know.
That will depend on the size of your bacon strips. Most bacon is sold in 1lb packs, so if that's the case for you, take the total number of strips and divide by 4. That will tell you how many strips are in 4oz.
Sounds delicious!
Great substitution idea!
