Foodie Friday: Easy Spinach & Bacon Quiche

Easy spinach and bacon quiche: pie-like egg dish

I really enjoy those mini appetizer quiches, but it’s been a while since I made my own egg dish (especially since eggs were scarce in the grocery stores earlier on). Anyway, I figured this would be an easy put-in-the-oven meal to make. Plus, I already had frozen spinach and bacon bits lying around.

Usually quiche is made with cream, but I didn’t have any in stock. My pantry, though, did have some coconut milk (yay for pre-stocking because of my love of curry).

My family really enjoyed this dish (see below for recipe).

• Bacon bits
• Spinach bits (frozen spinach, defrosted, maybe ¼ c)
•  6 large eggs
• 1¼ c coconut milk
• ¼ cup water
• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• Ground black pepper

Whisk eggs, coconut milk, water, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in half of spinach and bacon into the mixture; then sprinkle the rest on top.

Bake in cooked crust* at 350ºF for about thirty minutes.

Let cool.

*I didn’t have all-purpose flour, so I substituted cassava flour to make the crust. The dough was made from butter, cassava flour, sea salt, sugar, and water.

Happy cooking!
