Ingredients

- 6 Thick-cut bacon slices, chopped
- 1 Shallot, minced
- 6 cups Baby spinach
- 3 Eggs

Pairing Notes: Both the Mariah and the Perli Vineyard Pinot Noir has a savory element that is complimented by the bacon and the spinach. The earthiness that comes out in the wine balances the fruit notes.
Serena's Tip: I use a purchased pie crust for time management and for ease of freezing as well.
