Love spinach? Love sweet potatoes? Need to use up some extra eggs? This flavor-filled quiche is a crowd-pleaser.

Select ingredients:

2 medium sweet potatoes, slightly very thinly and lightly coated with canola oil
5 large eggs
½ cup heavy cream
½ cup heavy cream
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 package frozen spinach, thawed and drained
1 onion, chopped, then sauteed with salt, pepper, and garlic powder
8 to 10 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
4 ounces Swiss cheese, grated

In a large (10-inch round) baking dish or cast-iron skillet, layer the sweet potatoes slices to cover the entire bottom and up the sides of the dish. Lightly salt and pepper the sweet potatoes and bake in a 375-degree oven for approximately 15 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, the cream, the salt and pepper, the spinach, the onions, the bacon, and the Swiss cheese.
Pour the mixture over the sweet potato crust and return to the oven to bake for approximately 30 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
