Quiche - ham, bacon & spinach

by Rich/CA/Math

Nov 21, 2009

I just made this for the first time and it turned out amazing. I made the recipe myself using several recipes I found on the net for ideas. The nice thing about quiches is that substitutions can be made to fit your own taste.

Ingredients:

10 eggs lightly beaten 2 onions, chopped 2 TBS vegetable oil 1-1/2 cups heavy cream (can use half and half or whole mike if desired) 24 oz. shredded cheese (I used Monterey Jack - I think a mild cheese that melts well works best) 2 10 oz.pkgs frozen chopped spinach - thawed and drained 1/2 lb deli ham, diced 1/2 lb crisp bacon, crumbled 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste) 1/4 tsp pepper (adjust to taste)

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 350*

Put the oil in a hot heavy skillet then add the onions and cook them until translucent - do not brown. Then add the spinach and stir around to get rid of the last of the spinach wetness.

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 350*

Put the oil in a hot heavy skillet then add the onions and cook them until translucent - do not brown. Then add the spinach and stir around to get rid of the last of the spinach wetness.

In a large bowl beat the eggs lightly and add in the cream, salt and pepper. Fold in the cheese. Then fold in the ham and the bacon. Finally fold in the spinach/onion mixture, slowly so you don't curdle the eggs.

I put half the mixture into a Pyrex glass pie plate in which I had sprayed some Pam. The other half of the mixture was spooned into a muffin pan. I baked both of them for about 40 minutes (separate ovens - I have a double oven). Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the middle. When it comes out clean they are done.

I used paper cupcake cups in the muffin pan and that was a mistake. Next time I will just spray them and not use the paper cups. The quiche stuck to the paper.

Wait 10 minutes or so to eat them.

They are good hot. They are good cold. They are good reheated in the toaster oven. I especially like the muffin sized ones because I just them in a gallon-size ziplock bag and I have breakfast for a week - just pull out one or two and eat cold or reheat.

I'm also planning on making this as a side dish for Thanksgiving. I eat very low carb and so I can't eat the mashed potatoes or stuffing so this will work nicely, since it is naturally low carb.
