Baked Spanish Tortilla with Potato, Bacon, Onion, Mushroom, Tomato, Spinach, and Sharp Cheddar

I wanted something fairly quick and easy to make for dinner after a long and busy day and a baked Spanish tortilla sounded good.  I grabbed some eggs out of the refrigerator along with a couple of Yukon gold potatoes, bacon, sweet yellow onion, mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, and sharp cheddar. This baked Spanish tortilla was easy to throw together and smelled heavenly while it baked. My kids thought it was tasty and my husband and I both thought it was excellent.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Chop into crumbles. Remove all but 1 tbsp bacon grease from the pan. Add the onion, mushrooms, and potato slices to the hot skillet. Season with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder, to taste. Cook, stirring gently and often, for 12-15 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.
