Heat oven to 375 degrees.
Line crust with parchment paper and place dried beans inside. Blind bake crust for about 20 minutes, then carefully remove the parchment paper and beans and bake for another 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper until super smooth and well combined.
Add cheese, bacon, tater tots, red pepper, chives, and Lifeway Farmer Cheese to the partially baked pie crust.
Pour egg mixture over the filling.
Bake for 30 minutes. Then add a tin foil ring that just covers the crust and bake for another 15-25 minutes.
After adding the foil ring, check the quiche every 10 minutes or so, inserting a thin knife into the center of it, until the eggs are set and the knife comes out clean.
Let sit for 10 minutes, garnish with chives, slice, and enjoy!
