Spinach and Bacon Quiche
Twenty years ago I tasted quiche for the first time and I fell in love with it. I was planning my oldest daughter's wedding and my friend Barbara offered to make mini quiches as appetizers. Everybody at the wedding reception was delighted. Since then I have made it for breakfast, brunch or to take to potlucks. The recipe I am sharing with you today was inspired by Barbara who taught me the basics of how to make quiche. I developed this recipe and now share it with friends and family. For the filling: 1 1/4 cup of Swiss cheese, shredded 1 1/4 cup pepper jack cheese, shredded 1 cup spinach, chopped 6 slices of bacon a pinch of salt 1 small onion, peeled and diced 1 cup heavy cream 6 eggs 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon white ground pepper 1/2 teaspoon salt quiche dough - recipe below Cook the bacon in a skillet until a little brown but not toasty.
