Many people are looking to improve their health by eliminating wheat, corn, and/or dairy from their diets. I have been experimenting with recipes that are free of wheat, corn, and dairy for several years. I've created "Ideal Ingredients" to share not only what I have learned, but also to share a delicious and healthy way of eating!

Special Note: If you are also avoiding eggs, you may substitute the following for 1 egg in my baked goods recipes.
1 egg = 1/3 cup applesauce OR 1/4 cup mashed banana OR 1 T ground flaxseed + 3 T water

Bacon and Cheese Spinach Quiche

Bacon. Cheese.  It sounds completely unhealthy but don't let those two ingredients fool you. Although there is a small amount of bacon and cheese in this delectable dish, the star ingredient is spinach. Try it with your hard-to-please kids, husband, or anyone you know that doesn't like spinach. Try it, you might like it!

Ingredients
16 oz. frozen spinach, thawed and drained
2 T cooked bacon, crumbled
3 T cheddar cheese, grated
3 eggs
1 cup almond milk
1/4 t salt
1/8 t pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly spray pie plate with cooking spray.

Place thawed, drained spinach in greased pie plate. Top evenly with bacon and cheese.

In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Pour over the top of the spinach.

Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes or until knife comes out clean. Serve immediately.
