I made a bacon and egg pie for 9 for lunch today- used up 18 eggs! It was delicious- hardly any leftovers. Free range eggs from our chooks- I am surprised they are still laying with snow still around the back yard.

I don't really use a recipe any more, but here goes: spray your pie tin- I used a small roasting dish- line with savoury short pastry (frozen sheets from supermarket- I used the one that said 40% less fat) - sprinkle a little semolina on pastry so doesn't go soggy- line pastry with bacon slices. Cover with finely chopped onion. Break half the number of eggs on top of bacon and onion and prick yolks with a fork . Beat other half of the eggs into a bowl and whisk with a little milk or cream and salt and pepper. Pour into pie dish. Add more bacon if you have enough; grate tasty cheese on and cover with finely sliced tomato. Place some strips of pastry on top - brush strips with a little left over egg. Bake in hot oven until egg has set and pastry on top starts browning- depends on the size of your pie. Very nice cold as well. Can use bacon pieces instead of slices. The one I made today was about 5cm tall so took quite a while to cook- over an hour- but usually in a normal pie tin using 6 or 8 eggs would only take about 35 minutes.

Pikelets and pancakes freeze well in my expeirences. Cheesepuffs, they freeze well and are good for lunch's. Make a quiche for tea.
