Method
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

- In a frying pan add a little oil, then the onion and bacon and fry until the onion has softened and the bacon slightly brown. Add the capsicum and cook for 2 minutes. If you have fresh spinach add that until it has wilted.

- Add the eggs into a bowl and beat well. Add the onion mixture and the rest of the ingredients apart from the potato and cheese into the bowl and mix well.
- Pour half of the mixture over the potato layer, then top with remaining potato and pour the rest of the mixture on top.
