Ingredients

  • 1 pie crust, unbaked
  • 1 pound sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 large tomato, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  2. Sprinkle bacon over the crust. Top with tomato and cheese. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks, sour cream, flour and salt until smooth. In another large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into sour cream mixture; spread over cheese. Sprinkle with paprika.
  3. Bake at 350° until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let stand 5-10 minutes before cutting.
