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.
