Fig Bacon Spinach Salad With A Champagne Vinaigrette

Spinach Fig Bacon Salad

Lately my husband and I don’t see very much of each other. If he is not working, I am. And on the rare occasion that we both have some free time, we usually have to prepare for a party or out of town guests.

Spinach Fig Bacon Salad with a Champagne Dressing

The other night my mom graciously took the kids, giving us a free night. We had grand plans of trying a new restaurant and bakery, but having had worked all day the thought of going out just didn’t sound appealing anymore. So we decided to stay in and enjoy a quite dinner on the back patio.

Quick and Easy Romantic Dinner

The last thing I wanted to do was spend more time in the kitchen to prepare dinner. He and I love quiche, so I threw one in the oven and prepped the salad. In less than 25 minutes, we had a delicious meal and were sipping a crisp chardonnay. It was perfect, and much needed.

The egg white quiche was light, flavorful and perfectly filling. I paired it with a simple spinach, fig, and bacon salad, which was absolutely delicious. My husband adores fig, so when they are in season (for all of like 3 weeks) we eat them daily. This meal was extremely easy to put together and even easier to clean up!

La Terra Fina Quiche

Ever since working with La Terra Fina last year, I have been a huge fan of their products. I buy them regularly at Costco for party appetizer and quick family meals. What I love about La Terra Fina is that their quiches are free from artificial flavors and preservatives and offer 10+ grams of protein per serving. Now that they are also available in the 6ounce sizes, this will become a staple in my husband’s lunches!

So tell me, what do you make for a quick yet sophisticated outdoor meal?
