  Val, Here are a few I found in my travels which sound good. (It looks as though Bacon and Egg Pie is a favorite within the Commonwealth.)
 
Heather’s Bacon and Egg Pie  A fantastic recipe from my best mate's mum, that you can enjoy hot or cold. I guarantee if you make it as well as she does, you wont be able to only have one slice! Serves 4 as a main course. 
  • For the Base: (to fit a 9 to 10-inch dish) 200g (1 cup) plain flour
  • 100g (1/2 cup) butter
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cold water
  • For the Filling: 3 eggs, beaten
  • 275ml (9-ounces) milk (full fat)
  • 1 teaspoon English mustard
  • 100g (1/2 cup) chopped bacon
  • 50g (1/4 cup) Cheddar cheese, grated
  • 50g (1/4 cup) Parmesan cheese, grated
  • Pepper to taste 

Pre-heat your oven to gas mark 5 / 190 C. (375°F.) Make the pastry by putting the flour, butter, and salt into a food processor, and 'pulsing' until it looks like bread crumbs. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time ('pulsing' after each one), until the pastry reaches the correct consistency. (non sticky and smooth). Roll it out to around 3/4 cm (1/4-inch) thick, and line the tin with it. Sprinkle the bacon over the pastry, followed by the Cheddar. Combine the eggs, milk, mustard, and pepper to taste into a bowl, mix well, and pour over the bacon and Cheddar. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the top, and bake in the oven for 40 minutes.   From http://www.lunched.co.uk/miscellaneous/heather.htm


Bacon and Egg Pie w/ Vegetables   

  • 1 400 gram (14-ounce) packet of puff or flaky pastry
  • 4 to 6 rashers of bacon
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/2 cup of frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup of frozen corn kernels
  • 2 large tomatoes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste   

Preheat the oven to 200°C, (400°F) or gas mark 6. Roll out the pastry to fit the bottom of a pie or flan dish and put aside enough to cover the dish. Remove the rind and any excess fat from the bacon. Lay the bacon on top of the pastry in the dish. Break each egg into a cup and pour over the bacon. Pierce each yolk with a fork, spreading the egg around to cover the whole pie base. Sprinkle the frozen vegetables over the egg and slice the tomatoes and arrange neatly. Season and cover securely with the pastry lid, crimping the edges. Pierce the pastry lid with a fork or knife to let any steam escape while the pie is cooking. Bake for 20 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the egg has set. Serve warm or cold. Serves 4 to 6  From http://www.cuisinedumonde.com


Easy Bacon and Egg Pie Recipe  

  • 1 sheet frozen shortbread pastry, thawed
  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped bacon  

While the pastry is thawing, rub some butter or margarine on the inside of a shallow glass pie plate to prevent sticking. Place the single sheet of shortbread pastry in the base of the plate and carefully smooth down. Carefully crack your six eggs so that the raw yolks and whites are arranged fairly evenly inside the pastry-lined dish. Set some of the white from one egg aside in a cup. Sprinkle the bacon and parsley over and around eggs. Place the single sheet of puff pastry over the pie plate and crimp the edges down with a fork. Trim the excess with a knife. Brush the puff pastry top with the egg white. Bake the pie in the oven at about 325ºF/340ºF (160ºC/170ºC) for about 45 minutes. Check that the base is cooked and not soggy before serving. Serves 4 to 6 From Angel at http://www.foodgeeks.com  


Bacon and Eggs Pie w/Cream Cheese  

 

  • 1 (7.5-ounce) can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper
  • 3 ounces Philadelphia® Cream Cheese, cubed
  • 6 slices Oscar Mayer® Bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled 

Separate biscuits. Arrange on bottom and up side of 9-inch pie plate; press together to form crust. Bake as directed on package. Melt butter in medium skillet on low heat. Beat eggs, milk and seasonings with wire whisk until well blended; pour into skillet. Cook until eggs begin to set, stirring occasionally. Add cream cheese; cook until cream cheese is melted and eggs are set, stirring occasionally.  Spoon into crust; sprinkle with bacon.  Serves 6  Calories: 280, Fat: 18 g, Cholesterol: 245 mg, Sodium: 710 mg   From http://www.kraftfoods.com  Review from Kraft Foods: �?/SPAN>I made this for my family. Everyone loved it…I have made this a few times trying ham or sausage instead of the bacon. I've also put hash browns on the bottom then added the egg mixture Sprinkled it with cheese and served. They loved it!!�?SPAN>

Val, I'm in Kalgoorlie and McClugs 3rd recipe is the best for using Pampas frozen sheets.
 
You need a 230mm diameter pie dish. (9" USA)
 
250 gms choped bacon pieces from Woolies or Coles deli's (8ozs)
8 large (400gms) or 10 small (300gms) eggs
Black pepper from your grinder
Pure & Simple spray ( Pam )
 
Spray the dish, lay the short crust sheet in and trim outside pieces off. Use them to fill in the areas of the dish not covered.
Tip in bacon pieces and spread them evenly, then break the whole eggs and cover the bacon evenly. Tonnes of black pepper. Cover with the puff pastry or more short crust. Paint with milk. Stab a couple of steam holes.
 
180 degrees for 45 mins.
 
If you want to add half a brown onion OK, but cut it very thin it has to cook at the same time as the eggs. Lay the onion on top of the eggs. Also tomato should be de-seeded to cut down the moisture and may need extra time to cook.
 
Make 2, or if you have a fan forced oven, then more. Depends on how many to are feeding. A third of a pie per person. They keep in the fridge a day or 2 and out of the dish they freeze. Can eat cold for a picnic, but if re-heating, get it free and into a new sprayed pie dish first.   Tom
