This Bacon & Goat Cheese Quiche is a beautiful spring brunch dish full of flavor. It's light and delicious with a flaky crust and crunchy green onions.
I'm so grateful for the longer days of Spring. With the extra light and the hint of warmth, it makes me feel so much more hopeful. The wheel of the year is no joke, kids. If you've never tuned into how the sun affects your energy, start paying attention. It won't work exactly the same for everyone, but it's unlikely that the changes in sunlight won't affect you.
And with the coming of Spring also comes a slight shift in the foods I'm craving. It's still lots of cheese and carbs, but it's showing up in different form. I'm moving away from steaming bowls of soup or chili to slightly lighter fare like sandwiches, eggs, or cold dips. When we're truly tuned into the seasons, we just know how to offer ourselves what we need most.
What makes this Bacon & Goat Cheese Quiche so awesome?
This quiche would be absolutely perfect for an Ostara or Easter brunch. It's starts with a tender, flaky pie crust (store bought is awesome), and the filling is creamy and rich with salty bacon or pancetta, flavorful soft goat cheese, and crunchy green onions. It just tastes like Spring. Serve it with a crunchy green salad with a bright vinaigrette to a lovely light meal.
I never quite know when to serve quiche. I'm not French enough, I guess. It's eggs, so is it breakfast? Lunch? Do you eat it warm? Cold? Room temp? Of course, the answer to all of those is yes, if you want to. I think it's partly its versaility that makes quiche so awesome. There's no wrong way to enjoy it, so you can use it almost anywhere. And when it tastes this good, you'll definitely want to make it again and again.
Magical Properties of Eggs
Eggs have long been used in witchcraft for their protective properties. The hard outer shell protecting the life and nourishment within is a strong symbol. Many cultures around the world have rituals that use eggs to absorb negative energy or hexes from people. Powdered egg shells have also been used to protect property of places.
Around Ostara, eggs are often used as symbols of fertility. An abundant harvest was crucial to the survival of our Pagan ancestors, so fertility magick was a necessity. Eggs represent new life, so this is why they're such a prominent symbol of Spring equinox rituals.
