How to make a spinach bacon quiche
I knew I wanted cheese in the quiche, who wouldn't?
But two types of cheese was a great decision. And I had half a white onion and half a red onion so I used both. And well bacon, bacon makes everything better. I'm salivating at the thought of bacon right now, seriously I could eat bacon alll day errry day.
And then since I am on a diet I added spinach, it made the whole quiche healthy, right?
Well, that's what I told myself anyway. This is the first quiche I have ever made and how easy it was! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE and can't wait to make more!! Make life easier and use a pre-made pie crust or make your own, so tasty!! Hope you make this Bacon, Onion, Spinach Quiche sometime soon, you won't regret it!!

Great recipe, my only question is why not caramelize the onions in the bacon fat?

Thank you for sharing this great recipe! I made it 2 weeks ago and just took another one out of the oven! Hubby and Son both love it for breakfast, lunch or dinner! I made my own pie crust and used combo of white cheddar and monterey jack cheese. Also added a little dash of nutmeg since quiche recipes usually include this spice. It was done at exactly 55 minutes, just like yours. Thanks again for posting a delicious recipe.

Dana Ravech says
Hello. Can I use a regular frozen pie crust for this or does it need to be a deep dish one?
Elizabeth Waterson says
Hi Dana, you can do a not deep dish pie but you might just have a little bit extra filling! Let me know if you try the recipe! XX Liz
