Ingredients
  • 1 prepared deep dish pie crust (frozen or refrigerated)
  • 6 slices bacon, sliced into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
  • 1½ cups mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 large eggs
  • ¾ cup fat free Mootopia or Fair Life milk
  • ¾ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 (10-ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, defrosted and wrung out in paper towels to remove excess moisture
  • 1⅓ cup Gruyere cheese, shredded (divided)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line the bottom of a deep-dish pie pan with pie crust and set aside.
  2. In a medium skillet, cook bacon pieces over medium-high heat. Remove from pan, drain of excess fat and reserve. (If more than 1 tablespoon of grease is left in the pan, drain and discard).
  3. In the same skillet, add onions and mushrooms and saute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until edges are golden-brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Combine eggs, milk, salt, pepper, nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth. Stir in onion mixture, bacon, spinach, and 1 cup shredded cheese. Pour into pie crust and top with remaining ⅓ cup cheese.
  5. Crimp crust as desired, and bake for 40-45 minutes. (To protect your oven from spill-over, place a cookie sheet under the pie dish). Remove from oven and allow to rest for approx. 5 minutes before cutting into. Enjoy!
