How to Make Bacon Spinach Asiago Quiche

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare your homemade pie crust (recipe not included, but a standard recipe will work) and press it into a 9-inch pie plate. Blind bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
2. While the crust is baking, cook 6 slices of bacon until crispy. Crumble and set aside.
3. Sauté 1/2 cup chopped shallots (or green onions) in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until softened. Add 5 ounces of fresh spinach and cook until wilted.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
5. Stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup shredded Asiago cheese, the cooked bacon, spinach mixture, and 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained).
6. Pour the egg mixture into the pre-baked pie crust.
7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
8. Enjoy your delicious homemade Bacon Spinach Asiago Quiche!
