Bacon-Spinach Quiche

==Description==
I like to have this sometimes on Sunday for brunch when I want something a little eggy/cheesy. Usually I serve it with a light crisp green salad with some sort of vinaigrette. Other times, usually in summer, I will cut up some fresh fruit, like cantaloupe and pieces of watermelon and strawberries and serve with. It makes a nice light meal. This particular recipe is from Barbara Jones.
==Ingredients==
* 1 x 9 inch unbaked deep dish pie shell
* 2 tablespoons butter, softened
* 1 (10 ounces) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
* 8 ounces bacon, cooked and crumbled
* 1 cup heavy cream
* 4 eggs, beaten
* ⅓ cup shredded Swiss cheese
* ½ teaspoon salt
* 1 pinch nutmeg
==Directions==
# Rub softened butter on the inside surface of pie shell.
# Drain spinach; squeeze out as much liquid as you can.
# Place spinach in pie shell and top with crumbled bacon.
# Whisk together cream, eggs, cheese, salt, and nutmeg.
# Pour mixture into pie shell.
# Bake quiche at 425°F for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 325°F and bake for an additional 35 – 40 minutes or until quiche is set.
