Yes...at least the bacon. You don't want it to be over-done but it should be nicely "rendered" and beginning to lose the "raw" look. You don't want to add bacon when it's just out of the fridge. The onions can be added raw but their flavor is enhanced if you just saute them to bring out the natural flavors. It also makes the quiche look nicer...more prepared.
It depends on what cooked meat you are talking about because everything is different.
It not only depends on which cooked meat, but also on how well is was cooked, how it was handled before refrigeration, what packaging is used and the actual temperature at which it is stored.
A reasonable guideline is to use it within 3 or 4 days.
One egg dish similar to a quiche but without a pastry crust is a frittata. Frittata is, unlike the quiche, usually made without milk or cream.
A frittata (from the Italian, fritto, friggere: to fry) is made by beating eggs and mixing in cold, cooked meat, bacon, cheese, fried vegetables, and so on; the ingredients may also be added to the pan after the eggs are poured in.
The frittata is cooked on medium heat until the bottom is set and then inverted onto a heatproof plate or sheet; the top is grilled (broiled) until set. It can also be inverted into another pan to cook the top on the stove, though this gives a less attractive finish.
The top is often finished with extra cheese before grilling (broiling) and decorated with olives, anchovies, mushrooms, herbs and so on, like a pizza. The cooked frittata is allowed to cool slightly so that it can be cut into wedges or slices.
Frittata ingredients can be chosen simply from whatever you have on hand. Frittata is a delicious meal in itself, and can be eaten hot or cold, by itself or with salad or other accompaniments. Crusty white bread is often served alongside frittata. It also makes a substantial sandwich filling.
As with very many foods, including pizza, differently-named variants of this dish are made all over the world - particularly in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries - using similar ingredients and methods. Beating leftover meat and vegetables together with eggs and frying is a popular and delicious meal worldwide.
A similar dish to the Italian frittata is the Spanish omelet, which, outside of Spain, is usually made by adding cooked potato and fried onions and peppers to the eggs. The traditional Spanish omelet is more likely to be eggs, beaten and cooked in a pan, perhaps with onions, and served with a sauce of hot peppers, onions and tomatoes.
It depends on the type of quiche. If it contains any form of dairy it can be kept unrefrigerated for up to two days, however you should keep it covered.
Ingredients
Cool 5 minutes prior to serving.
No they do not always have to depending on what it is like a cake or pudding

I would first crumble up a sheet of foil. Uncrumble the foil (not completely) and lay that in a frying pan. Then I would lay the quiche on the foil. Purpose of foil is to keep the bottom of quiche from burning. Cover pan loosely with lid or foil and put heat on low. Check after a while to make sure quiche is heated throughout. Many restaurants use a microwave and that simply ruins the quiche. I have not tried this method on quiche but it works great (without foil) when reheating pizza.
I just had quiche in a restaurant who served microwave reheated quiche. It was terrible. The eggs were slimy and the crust was mushy. Yuck.
* 1 cup(s) egg substitute * 1 cup(s) water * 1/2 cup(s) lowfat buttermilk baking disk * 1/2 cup(s) nonfat dry milk * 1/2 cup(s) plain nonfat yogurt * 2 tablespoon(s) grated fresh parmesan cheese * 1 cup(s) lowfat cheddar cheese; shredded * 1/2 cup(s) chopped green onions I've added the source as a reference.
the quiche lorraine from the Lorraine region in eastern France) is the most famous recipe.
It is now from France but it actually originated form Germany.
'une quiche' is a kind of salted tart. The covering is made of egg plus other things depending of the recipe (bacon, or leeks, cheese) - this is also a slangish/familiar expression to say 'someone who doesn't know the simplest thing'.
If it is Lorraine Quiche it has about 400 calories. A piece of individual Spinach Quiche (meatless) has 270 calories. I know, incredible but real.
SPINACH QUICHE 1 pkg (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
4 eggs
1 cup pet evaporated milk
1/4 to 1/2 tsp. ground red pepper
1 pkg (10 oz.) frozen, chopped spinach, thawed and thoroughly drained

Squeeze spinach between paper towels until almost dry. Stir spinach and ham or onion into egg mixture. Pour into frozen pie crust. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F. oven on a preheated baking sheet for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Makes 6 servings. Variation: Top quiche with tomatoes for added color.
Blind baking a pastry case stops the pastry blistering, or rising to form an uneven base.
No, you do not need to cover quiche when you bake it. You may cover the very outside edges of the crust lightly with foil toward the end of the baking process, but only if desired. This helps to prevent the crust from burning. Leave the center of the quiche uncovered.
