Spinach and Mushroom Quiche

Ingredients

• 1/4 C real bacon pieces 
• 4 eggs, beaten
• 1 1/2 cups light cream
• (instead of eggs and cream, I used 1 1/4 C egg beaters)
• 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
• 1 Tablespoon olive oil
• 2 Tablespoon water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups chopped fresh spinach
• 2 cups chopped fresh mushrooms
• 1/2 cup chopped onions
• 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
• 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese to sprinkle on top
• 1 ready made pie crust

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet with the spinach, onion, mushrooms, water, olive oil and garlic. Cook over medium high heat until veggies are tender. Drain any excess liquid and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, whip together eggs, cream, (or egg beater) salt, and pepper. Stir in veggie mixture and Swiss cheese. Transfer to the pie crust. Top with remaining cheese.
4. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven 35 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly browned.

I served this for dinner with steamed broccoli and whole cranberry sauce.  It was colorful, healthy (don't count the crust) and delicious!  I found this online and simplified and lightened it up:  http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/Belle-and-Chrons-Spinach-and-Mushroom-Quiche/Detail.aspx
