Celadon's Bacon and Gruyere Quiche with Spinach and Onion

"It must be the smell of bacon."  That's what my roommate, Celadon, said when I exclaimed how happy I suddenly felt after a kind of stressful day. Before even opening the door to our apartment, I could smell something wonderful. Celadon made a very scrumptious and very comforting quiche that quickly disappeared. Adapted from Emeril Lagasse's Quiche Lorraine, Celadon's quiche was wonderfully rich and filling and the perfect meal for...well...breakfast, lunch and dinner! And let's be honest, bacon makes us happy.
