Canadian Bacon and Egg Pie

An easy and delicious egg pie! Grape tomatoes dressed in balsamic vinaigrette are a perfect complement to this dish.

12 slices Canadian bacon
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
8 sandwich-size slices Swiss cheese
12 eggs
3/4 cup light cream
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Preheat oven to 350. Saute Canadian bacon in butter 1 minute on each side. Drain. Fit bacon slices around rim of 10-inch pie pan to form scalloped edge. Place cheese slices in bottom of pan, slightly overlapping bacon. Break each egg into small dish and carefully slide onto cheese. Cover with cream; season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle grated cheese on top. Bake for 45 minutes or until a thin knife inserted in center comes out clean.
