Steps:
- 1. Place pastry into 9" pie dish and flute edge. Bake in hot 450 oven for 6-7 minutes til lightly browned. Remove from oven and reduce to 325 degrees. Fry bacon til crisp, drain, and crumble into small pieces. Place on bottom of pie shell. Top evenly with shredded cheese. In medium bowl, beat eggs, whisk in heavy cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg if desired. Pour over slowly and evenly. Bake at 325 for 35-40 minutes until almost set in the very middle.

At least 8 servings. *You can also bake this in a tart pan, but since I don't have any, I can't give you any directions on that... (yet...) Christmas is coming... ;)
