This recipe makes way too much filling for a 9 inch pastry shell. Even after I had to throw away about a half cup of the mixture, it was still overflowing and made a gigantic mess. It hasn't finished cooking yet, but I won't make it again due to the mess. Perhaps if only half the spinach was used it would be better.

It's even better with fresh leaves of spinach added to the eggs and cheese mixture. The tender leaves cook while the quiche sets up. Another tip? If your pie plate is bigger (or smaller) than a standard pie plate, just use 1 egg for every 1/2 cup milk, half and half, or cream and you can increase the amount of filling so it fills your pieplate. I used an empty pieplate and filled it with water to judge how much filling it would take.

I made this for brunch this morning and it would not cook. Is the 2 cups of milk for 2 eggs and no flour right? It tasted okay but was runny and would not set up. I baked for an hour and then set temp to 425 for another 15.....Any comments?

My husband I enjoy this dish about once a month. I leave out the bacon due to the fat. I do add a dash of nutmeg to enhance the flavor. It is delicious.
