Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ pound sliced bacon
1 (9 inch) single refrigerated pie crust
6 eggs, beaten

6 ounces cream cheese
4 eggs

Time 4h5m

Yield Makes one 9-inch quiche

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese (2 ounces)
2 1/2 cups lightly packed baby spinach

Steps:

  • Crust: Pulse flour and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk together egg yolk and 2 tablespoons ice water. Add to flour mixture and pulse until moist crumbs start to form (no longer). Transfer mixture to a piece of plastic wrap, and using wrap and your hands, form into a disk. Refrigerate, wrapped, at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to an 11-inch round. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate; trim edges to a 1-inch overhang. Tuck overhang under and crimp as desired. (To create arc pattern, press a spoon into dough.) Wrap in plastic; freeze at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days.

  • Filling: Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees. Whisk eggs until smooth, then whisk in cream, milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir in half of bacon and cheese. Pour custard mixture into crust, stopping just short of the top; be careful not to overfill. Press spinach into custard, leaving some poking out from top.

BACON-SPINACH QUICHE



Bacon-Spinach Quiche image

I like to have this sometimes on Sunday for brunch when I want something a little eggy/cheesy. Usually I serve it with a light crisp green salad with some sort of vinaigrette.

CRUSTLESS SPINACH QUICHE WITH BACON & TOMATOES



Crustless Spinach Quiche with Bacon & Tomatoes image

The most amazing things happen when you go into the kitchen and experiment. I've always maintained that most chefs are really just mad scientists anyway. This recipe begins with a quiche that I've done for years... this time I varied the cheeses, and came up with a flavorful dish that even my uber-picky relatives liked....

Provided by Andy Anderson !

Categories     Other Main Dishes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 medium onion, chopped
12 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed & drained
4 medium eggs, beaten
1 c pepper jack cheese, shredded
1 c colby cheese, shredded
1/2 c sharp cheddar, shredded
1/2 c greek feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 tsp salt, table variety
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4-6 slice good slab bacon, thick sliced
1 large beefsteak tomato

Steps:

  • 1. Place rack into the middle position, and then preheat oven to 350f (175c).
  • 2. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan, and set aside.
  • 3. Dice the bacon, and fry up in a large skillet, at medium-high heat, until nice and crisp.
  • 4. Remove the bacon from the pan, and allow to drain on paper towels. Set aside.
  • 5. Meanwhile, remove all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the pan, and return to the stovetop.
  • 6. Add chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 4 to 6 minutes.
  • 7. Stir in spinach, reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking until excess moisture has evaporated.
  • 8. Chef's Note: You don't want the mixture to dry out... just evaporate off the puddles of liquid.
  • 9. Remove the pan from the heat, and allow to cool slightly.
  • 10. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, then add the cheese, salt and pepper, and combine. Then add the spinach/onion mixture, and the reserved bacon. Blend together until evenly mixed.
  • 11. Chef's Note: Avoid, at all costs, the pre-shredded cheeses that are out there. In order to keep the cheese from clumping, they toss the cheese with things like powdered wood pulp... And if you have any problems with that, don't worry because the USDA says that wood pulp is completely safe for consumption ;-)
  • 12. Chef's Note: I have always maintained that Feta cheese is an acquired taste... But its use in this dish really kicks up the flavor. So, if you've avoided Feta, I would really recommend you give it a try in this dish.
  • 13. Place mixed ingredients into the prepared pie pan, and then add the tomatoes to the top, and slightly press them into the mixture.
  • 14. Bake in preheated oven until eggs have set, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
  • 15. Cooking Tip: If you have a good cast-iron pan, you could cook the bacon, onions, and spinach, and then add the eggs and cheese, and put the pan into the oven. Making this a rustic, one-pan dish.
  • 16. Presentation Tip: If you have a baking pan that does mini quiches... these make a brilliant appetizer for your guests at your next dinner party.
  • 17. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

CRAB, BACON AND SPINACH QUICHE RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Crab, Bacon and Spinach Quiche Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by á-32699

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 prepared pie crust (I use Pillsbury)
1 cup of milk
1 egg
1 small container ( 8oz) of crab meat (make sure the shells have been picked out, I used the claw meat - less expensive and just as good)
1 10 oz package of frozen spinach, thawed and drained
2 slices of chopped bacon, uncooked (this will be cooked with the spinach)
1 TB Old Bay seasoning
1 / 2 cup of Monterrey Jack cheese, shredded
Dash of salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 With a knife, make small slits in thawed pie crust and bake for about 5-7 minutes or until just lightly browned. You don't want to pre-bake it too much since it will be going back into the oven after all of the ingredients have been placed into the pie shell. In a small to medium sized skillet on medium heat, begin to cook the chopped bacon and add the spinach about 2-3 minutes into cooking the bacon. Continue cooking until the bacon is cooked through and crispy and the spinach has wilted slightly. Place the spinach and bacon mixture onto the bottom of the pre-baked pie shell. Make sure your crab meat has been picked over for shells and place on top of the spinach and bacon mixture. Prepare your milk and egg base by combining the milk, egg, and Old Bay. Add a dash of salt and pepper for taste. Pour the egg and milk mixture over the crab and spinach. Top with Monterrey Jack cheese and bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes, or until the milk and egg mixture is set and no longer jiggles like jello.

CLAUDIA'S LOW FAT SPINACH & BACON QUICHE MUFFINS



Claudia's Low Fat Spinach & Bacon Quiche Muffins image

I've been perfecting this recipe since having something similar at Panera Bread. The garlic in it is not to be overwhelming - just a kiss of garlic. Garlic lovers, please resist the temptation to double the garlic. This recipe will knock your socks off, as is! So delicious! Great for freezing.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 eggs
2 c milk
1 1/4 c shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1/4 c finely chopped onion
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp paprika
10 oz spinach, frozen, chopped, cooked and drained

Tips:

  • For a crispy quiche crust, pre-bake the pie crust before filling it.
  • Use fresh spinach for the best flavor. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out all the excess water before using.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy but not too hard.
  • Use a good quality cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, Gruyère, or Swiss.
  • Don't overfill the quiche crust. The filling should come up to about 3/4 of the way to the top of the crust.
  • Bake the quiche until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
