Crustless quiche

When Scott woke up to this dish last weekend, he literally asked me, "Why is there a salad in my eggs?" I don't know why people tend to have such an aversion to spinach! It's great for you and delicious. I really do love it in egg bakes.

The original recipe for this quiche was incredibly simple. I added what I had on hand-msuhrooms, onion, ham, and some tomatoes with chiles. You can really do whatever you want with quiches. This needs to cook for an hour, so make it for a brunch or if you get up much earlier than your breakfast companions!

I know people are always wary about eating eggs as leftovers. I'm pretty sure I had this for breakfast the next three days and it was delcious. I kept getting asked at work what it was because it smelled so good so early in the morning!
