Bacon and Spinach Quiche

I love quiche.  They're quick to throw together, they're freezer friendly and they're great for our kids since they have a little bit of everything in them!  I used my cobbler/pie crust recipe with these.  If you have a tart plate with the removeable plate like I do, you can use that, or a regular pie plate works just as well.

Preheat oven to 400.  After making your crust, press it into your pan, making sure you have enough crust for the sides. 

Filling:
4 pieces of cooked bacon, sausage (any kind you want) finely chopped
half of a medium size yellow onion, finely chopped
1/3 cup of chopped spinach
1/3 cup of cheddar cheese
1/3 cup of milk
8 eggs
2 tsps black pepper

Combine all ingredients in a bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.  Place your pie or tart plate on a cookie sheet and pour the filling into your unbaked crust.  Bake quiche for 40-45 minutes. 


These are great to make ahead if you're expecting company or on a holiday morning.  Place everything in the pan uncooked and bake in the morning.



The second one, I added about a 1/4 cup of chopped cherry tomatoes!
