- 1 9 inch unbaked pastry shell or pie crust
- 8 slices bacon cooked and diced
- 1/2 lb. Swiss cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup frozen chopped spinach cooked and drained
- 1 Tbs enriched flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 dash nutmeg
- 3 eggs beaten
- 1 3/4 cups milk
Bake pastry shell or pie crust in a 450-degree oven only 7 minutes or just until lightly browned. Remove from oven and reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.
Fry bacon until crisp; drain and crumble. While bacon is cooking thaw spinach according to directions on the package (you will have some leftover that you can use for something else.). Blot excess liquid off of spinach with paper towels until dry.
Reserve 2 Tablespoons bacon for trim. Place the remaining bacon in the pie shell. Add cheese.
Combine remaining ingredients and pour over bacon, cheese, and spinach. Sprinkle reserved bacon on top in a circle.
Bake at 325 degrees F for 35 minutes or until almost set in the center. Let quiche cool 20 - 25 minutes before serving. Refrigerate any leftovers.
