I haven't tried it yet but this is how he describes it. This recipe is excellent served for breakfast with fruit, or at lunch or dinner with a salad. This recipe makes two 9 inch pies. The reason for this is because if you only make one you will hate yourself the next day when there are no leftovers. Bacon, ham, and spinach and mushrooms are layered with 3 cheeses in this rich delicious egg dish. Ingredients:
225 g thick sliced bacon |
284 g frozen chopped spinach, thawed |
227 1/4 g sour cream |
salt and pepper |
2 (9 inch) unbaked pie crusts |
30 ml olive oil |
1 onion, finely diced |
225 g fresh mushrooms, finely diced |
280 g finely diced smoked ham |
225 g monterey jack cheese, shredded |
225 g cheddar cheese, shredded |
115 g parmesan cheese, grated |
8 eggs |

1 teaspoon grams dried parsley |
salt and pepper |
