My husband and I have run a dairy for over 3 years and began making cheese 5 years ago. Gouda's distinctive, buttery taste is sensational in this quiche.

Ingredients

  • Pastry for single-crust pie (9 inches)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 8 cups torn fresh spinach
  • 1 cup shredded Gouda cheese
  • 6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups half-and-half cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  2. In a skillet, saute the onion in butter until tender. Stir in spinach. Remove from the heat. Sprinkle cheese and bacon into crust; top with spinach mixture. In a bowl, beat eggs. Add the cream, salt and pepper; mix well. Carefully pour into crust.
  3. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
