Spinach and Bacon Quiche image

A friend of mine made this, and I just had to have the recipe. And it is the best tasting quiche I have had in years. Never any complaints when I make it. Great for a fall/winter dinner with a cup of soup.

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ pound sliced bacon
1 (9 inch) single refrigerated pie crust
6 eggs, beaten
1 ½ cups heavy cream
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
5 dashes hot pepper sauce, or to taste
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach - thawed, drained and squeezed dry
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
½ cup chopped green onion
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop when cool.
  • Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, and set aside.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce. Spread the spinach into the bottom of the pie crust; top with bacon, Cheddar cheese, and green onion. Pour the egg mixture over the filling, and sprinkle the quiche with Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the top is lightly puffed and browned, and a knife inserted into the center of the quiche comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes.

MINI SPINACH, BACON, CHEESE QUICHES



Mini Spinach, Bacon, Cheese Quiches image

A delicious, crust-free mini quiche perfect to use when you have a little leftover bacon and fresh spinach. Choose good quality cheeses freshly grated (I used Beecher's Marco Polo in place of mozzarella and Parmesano-Reggiano) and these will be even better. Prep time is if you are using leftover bacon.

Time 55m

Yield 10 mini-quiches, 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 slices bacon, crisply cooked and crumbled
1 tablespoon bacon grease or 1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup onion, diced
5 ounces fresh spinach, chopped
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
15 ounces ricotta cheese
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
3 eggs

Steps:

  • In a skillet over medium heat cook the onions in bacon grease OR olive oil until tender.
  • Add spinach and seasonings and stir. Turn heat up to medium high to cook off spinach moisture. This will take only a couple of minutes; you want spinach just wilted and still bright green.
  • Remove from heat and stir in bacon. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes.
  • Combine cheeses in a large bowl.
  • Add eggs and stir until well blended.
  • Add cooled spinach mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Divide mixture evenly among 10 lightly greased muffin cups. Fill other two empty cups 1/2 full of water (to allow for even cooking).
  • Bake at 350 for 40 minutes until filling is set.
  • Let stand for 10 minutes, then run a thin knife around edges to release.
  • Serve warm.
