6 slices Canadian bacon, diced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease 6 individual small quiche pans or ramekins. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream. Divide the bell pepper, salad onions, Canadian bacon, dill, and seasonings evenly among the prepared pans. Pour the egg mixture over the fillings and top with grated cheddar cheese. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch. While the quiches bake, prepare the guacamole by combining the mashed avocado, salt, white pepper, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and chopped tomato in a bowl. Mix until combined. Serve the warm quiche with fresh guacamole and a crisp salad.
