Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9 - 10 inch deep pie dish, set aside.
Place bacon in a 12-inch non-stick skillet and cook over medium-high heat, tossing frequently, until browned and crisp, about 6 - 10 minutes.
Transfer bacon to a plate lined with several layers of paper towels to drain, leave 1 Tbsp rendered bacon fat in a skillet drain and reserve or discard excess.
Return skillet to medium-high heat, add spinach and saute just briefly until it has wilted, about 15 - 30 seconds, transfer spinach to plate with bacon.
In a large mixing bowl whisk together eggs, half and half, onion powder, garlic powder until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste*.
Add cooked bacon, tomatoes, spinach and swiss and toss mixture to distribute ingredients. Pour into prepared pie dish.
Bake in preheated oven until just set, about 30 - 35 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve warm.

Notes

Try it with other mix-ins here's a few ideas:
*Season lightly with salt as the bacon and cheese will add salt. I only needed about 1/4 tsp salt.
