Directions
Bacon Spinach Asiago Quiche,This is the quiche recipe that I created for RSC #11. It starts off with a homemade crust and then is filled with a delighful combination of eggs, bacon, spinach, asiago and cheddar cheeses, shallots or green onions and sun dried tomatoes.,Great recipe with a couple of “tweakings” -,I’m not good at pastry, so used a store bought crust. The filling is delicious – however, to make it even fluffier I separated the eggs yolks from the whites and whipped the whites to a light stiffness, then folded them into the rest of the ingredients. used fresh spinach sauted in fresh garlic and a tiny bit of olive oil until just barely wilted.
