Ingredients
- 1 inch pie crust deep dish, store bought or homemade
- 10 lices Bacon cooked and crumbled
- 2 TB olive oil
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 10 oz spinach frozen package, thawed, and squeeze-dried well
- 8 oz mushrooms fresh, chopped
- 5 large eggs lightly beaten
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 4 roma tomatoes seeded and thinly sliced
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F, with rack on middle position. Lightly grease a 9-10 deep dish pie pan. Place a single layer prepared pie crust (store-bought or homemade) into the pan, pressing well into the bottom and sides of pan. Pinch edges together for a fluted design. For a crisper crust, pre-bake homemade pie crust by poking holes throughout with a fork and bake 7 minutes, with fluted edges loosely covered with pieces of foil. Let sit at room temp while you continue making filling.
- In a large skillet over medium high heat, combine the olive oil and onion, cooking until browned and translucent. Add squeeze-dried spinach and cook until there's no more excess moisture. Add crumbled bacon and mushrooms. Season with a dash of kosher salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, cheese, 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Whisk to combine well. Fold mixture together with the spinach mixture. Pour into prepared pie pan. Top with tomato slices - seed them to avoid juices pooling at the top.
- Bake 40-45 minutes or until center is just slightly loose and edges are set - cover loosely with foil if edges of crust brown too quickly. Let cool 15 minutes, up to overnight. Best served slightly warm or at room temp.

Notes
- Feel free to make it meatless by omitting the bacon.
- It's not absolutely necessary to pre-bake pie crust, but we definitely recommend it otherwise the bottom may be a bit softer. Otherwise, feel free to use store-bought pie crust if you'd like.
- Quiche can be made the night before, allowed to cool at room temp overnight, and served in the morning.
- Note that this recipe is for a deep-dish pie. If you're using a regular size pie pan, you'll have enough leftover filling for about 10 crustless muffin size quiches.
