It had been a while since I made quiche so I LOADED this one up. I loaded it with cheese and bacon! I threw in some fresh spinach because there needs to be a vegetable right?

Ingredients

We use

• Pie Crust – Honestly, I just use frozen pie crusts. Marie Callender frozen pie crusts to be exact. I use these crusts with my Sweet Potato Pies. I feel like so much work goes into making the pie fillings that the simple shortcut of using a good frozen pie crust makes life so much easier.
• Fresh Baby Spinach – Forget the frozen green brick! Fresh spinach is not only more nutrient-rich but also more flavorful. In this recipe, I use fresh spinach and wilt it in hot bacon grease – a simple, yet bold and tasty way to bring out its flavor. When you bite into this 3 cheese bacon spinach quiche, you’ll definitely notice the spinach paired with the bacon and onion, creating a wonderfully flavorful dish. So ditch the green brick
• Bacon
• Heavy Whipping Cream
• Salt & Pepper
• Eggs
• The Cheeses: Crumbled Feta, Shredded Mozzarella, and Shredded Cheddar cheese.
• Onion – Finely diced.

How to make Quiche

Satisfy your craving for a delicious quiche and impress your brunch guests by following these easy steps!

Preheat the oven to 350F and cook bacon in a large-rimmed skillet until crispy. Remove the bacon to one side and don’t drain the bacon grease. Add baby spinach to the pan and stir over medium heat until wilted, then drain in a colander. Dice the bacon, then make the filling by mixing together spinach, half the bacon, whipping cream, salt, pepper, and eggs in a large bowl. Sprinkle mozzarella, cheddar, and onion into a pre-baked pie shell, then top with the spinach egg mixture and remaining bacon. Bake for 55 minutes or until a knife inserted comes out clean. Let the quiche rest for 20 minutes before serving and enjoy!
