Keto Bacon Spinach Mushroom Quiche

Who can resist bacon for breakfast? Every part of this recipe from the spinach to the vegetables are packed with bacony flavour in this Keto Bacon Spinach Mushroom Quiche.

Ingredients (Makes 8 Serves)

  • 6 eggs (beaten)
  • 7 slices bacon
  • 1 medium brown onion
  • 192g mushrooms (sliced)
  • 60g baby spinach (packed tightly)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup thickened cream
  • 227g cream cheese (softened)
  • 50g parmesan (grated)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

 

 

Notes

Cut your cooked bacon slices into small 1cm pieces. Use the bacon fat to cook the onion and mushrooms and wilt the spinach.

You do not really have to cook the mushrooms and onions very long since they will soften when baked with the egg mixture. 

Delicious cold or re-heated the next day.  Use any mini muffin pans to cook smaller quiches with any leftover batter.
