Low Carb : Crustless Bacon & Spinach Quiche

We're rolling into March and we decided there is no better time to launch this new section of our website "Warrior Pantry". For our first recipe we thought we'd share something that is quick and easy, and really just perfect for whipping up as an easy Friday night or weekend dinner.

The yummy low carb crustless bacon & spinach quiche is super quick and easy and nice and low carb for Harrison. Just a note though, and we are trying to work out our doses (or timing rather) with this still, because of the amount of cheese, the fat content is increased and it creates a similar delayed spike as would be expected from pizza or lasagne. The quiche serves 8 and per serving there is a low 5,4g carbs.

Pair your slice of quiche with a fresh garden salad. Super filling and yummy!

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon butter
• Red onion, half a cup, diced
• 200g bacon, diced
• 4 cups spinach, sliced
• 6 eggs
• 1 cup double thick cream
• 225g white cheddar cheese, grated

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
2. In a pan, over medium heat, melt the tablespoon of butter, add the onions and bacon and cook until the onions are translucent.
   
3. Add the spinach and "sweat" them slightly until the leaves are wilted.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and double thick cream until mixed.
5. Place the cooked onion, bacon and spinach into a baking dish. Then add the cheese and pour over the egg mixture.
6. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until you can wiggle the dish and the quiche doesn't shake in the center. Remove and let cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
