Ingredients

1pound thick cut bacon, diced
1large bunch baby spinach
12 eggs
1cup diced mushrooms
3 green onions, chopped
3tablespoons full-fat canned coconut milk
2cloves garlic, minced
1teaspoon onion powder
1tablespoon Italian seasoning
black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375˚F.
  2. Brown the diced bacon in a large skillet.
  3. Meanwhile, rinse the spinach in a strainer and let it drip dry while you finish cooking the bacon.
  4. Spread the cooked bacon evenly over the bottom of a 9×13-inch glass baking dish.
  5. Take the spinach and squeeze out any water left in it. Spread the spinach on top of the bacon.
  6. In a large bowl whisk the eggs. Add the last 7 ingredients to the eggs and stir together.
  7. Pour the entire mixture over the spinach and bacon. To make sure all the spinach is completely covered by the egg mixture, use your hand and press on top of the spinach until the egg mixture sits on top of the spinach layer evenly.
  8. Cover the quiche tightly with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 20–25 minutes or until the eggs are cooked through in the center. You’ll know the quiche is done when you jiggle the pan and the center does not move.
