So versatile and sooooo tasty! It’s almost impossible to get wrong too! The quiche has bacon because, quite frankly, everything is better with bacon! But, there’s spinach in there too so that eases some of the guilt of this pleasurable Spinach and Bacon Quiche. —todayimight.com

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 6-8 slices of bacon, chopped
  • cups green onion, chopped finely
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese, grated

  • 1 dash black pepper
  • teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • 1 pie crust
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a frying pan, cook chopped bacon on medium-high heat until chewy to crispy depending on your preference. Drain bacon fat.

I think you're missing a couple steps. I assume you mix up bacon and veggies with the eggs and cheese between steps 3 and 4?

Must have missed that when entering the recipe. Thanks for the heads up!
