Savory Bacon and Spinach Quiche

Ingredients

Pie crust

1 (9-inch) crust

Bacon

6 slices

Fresh spinach

2 cups, chopped

Cheddar cheese

1 cup, shredded

Eggs

4 large

Milk

1 cup

Garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon

Black pepper

1/4 teaspoon

Salt

1/4 teaspoon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Carefully place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently against the sides, and set aside.
3. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until they are crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the skillet, allow to cool slightly, and crumble into small pieces.
4. In the same skillet, add the chopped spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
6. Evenly spread the crumbled bacon, sautéed spinach, and shredded cheddar cheese over the bottom of the pie crust.
7. Pour the egg mixture over the filling ingredients in the pie crust, ensuring even distribution.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and golden brown on top.
9. Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
