CRUSTLESS SPINACH QUICHE
I served this crustless quiche at a church lunch, and I had to laugh when one guy told me how much he disliked vegetables. Many people were surprised by how much they loved this veggie-filled quiche recipe-and he was one of them! -Melinda Calverley, Janesville, Wisconsin

Tips:
- To ensure a crispy tart crust, preheat the oven to a high temperature and use a tart pan with a removable bottom. This will help the crust cook evenly and prevent it from becoming soggy.
- Before filling the tart shell, blind-bake it. This means pre-baking the crust without the filling to prevent it from becoming soggy. To blind-bake the crust, prick the bottom of the pastry with a fork and bake it in a preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the filling. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the tart.
- Don't overfill the tart shell. This can cause the filling to overflow and make the tart difficult to eat.
- Bake the tart until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. This will usually take about 30-45 minutes.
- Let the tart cool slightly before serving. This will help the filling to set and make it easier to slice.
Conclusion:
Spinach tart is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover spinach. With its creamy filling and flaky crust, this tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this spinach tart recipe a try!
