Breakfast. It’s what’s for dinner!
I don’t know about you, but I seriously love eating breakfast for dinner. Maybe it’s because I hate cooking in the morning. I’m so not a morning person, but I really enjoy a hot breakfast. If I’m going to eat a hot meal for breakfast, I’m going out to eat, lol. But….since I never cook it in the mornings, it makes a perfect night time meal, too. This one is so easy to throw together, as you’ll see in the video.
We started with these simple ingredients. Eggs, milk, butter, spinach, cheese, bacon and salt & pepper.
And after we cooked it, it looked like this. I know, not the prettiest thing you’ve ever seen, but it sure was mighty tasty! If you don’t like spinach or have a child or husband who dislikes it, just leave it out and/or replace it with a vegetable everyone likes. I have tried green peppers, broccoli, mushrooms, etc., and they’re all good. Of course, if your family is not happy about any veggies in their eggs, leave them all out and have it a meat only quiche. The nice thing about quiche dishes is that you CAN change it up to fit your family. This is a perfect dish for Christmas morning or even New Year’s Day! Keep it in mind, because it’s so, so very easy! I don’t know about you, but I happen to like easy recipes, as long as it’s also tasty!

311kcal? Something tells me that ten eggs, a cup of milk, and a handful of bacon doesn’t contain almost half a million calories

I double checked the calorie count and it is accurate. I think it’s because it’s for 8 servings.

This looks amazing. I love the idea of breakfast in the slow cooker! Could you please tell me if I should add 1 cup of the chopped spinach or 1/2 cup of the chopped spinach? Or, is the 1/2 cup for a garnish? thanks!
