Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1 pie crust (refrigerated, frozen, or homemade)
6 ounces bacon
10 ounces frozen chopped spinach (thawed)
3 eggs
1 cup evaporated milk (or half and half, whole milk, or part heavy cream)
½ cup ricotta cheese
2 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese (grated)
1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
1 to 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
If using a frozen pie crust, thaw, and keep in the fridge until needed.
Put the thawed spinach in a colander and squeeze and drain as much water as possible. Make sure it is very well drained. Set aside.
Slice the mushrooms and sauté over medium high heat in a medium skillet with 1 to 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté, stirring frequently, for about 5 to 6 minutes.
Cook bacon and chop into small pieces. Place on paper towels to absorb any excess grease. Try baking bacon or making air fryer bacon.
Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator. If using a frozen pie crust, place the pie tin in a larger pie dish.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, evaporated milk, ricotta cheese, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper together until smooth. Stir in the spinach, cheddar cheese, and mushrooms until combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust. Arrange the crumbled bacon on top. (The bacon can also be mixed in with the filling if you prefer.)
Carefully place the quiche on the heated baking sheet and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the middle is just set and is no longer jiggly. Let cool for 15 minutes before cutting into pieces and serving.

Categories Breakfast

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

one unbaked pie shell
5 ounces frozen spinach
1/4 onion, chopped
4 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup shredded cheese
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Cook spinach and onion together in skillet until onion is soft and spinach is completely thawed, cool slightly.
Cut cream cheese into small cubes and place in the bottom of pie crust. Top with spinach and onion mixture.
In a mixing bowl beat eggs. Add shredded cheese, milk, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper.
Pour egg mixture into crust.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes or until center is set. You may have to cover it with foil for the last 10-15 minutes so the crust doesn't get too dark.
Take out of the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

Use fresh spinach. Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach. If you're using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw it completely and squeeze out any excess water.
Wilt the spinach before adding it to the quiche. Wilting the spinach removes excess moisture and helps to prevent the quiche from becoming watery.
Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan, will give the quiche a more complex flavor.
Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeaten eggs will make the quiche tough. Just whisk them until they are combined.
Bake the quiche until it is set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center of the quiche should come out clean.
Let the quiche cool before slicing. This will help to prevent it from falling apart.
Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature. It can also be served cold, but it is best when it is still warm.

Conclusion:

Spinach quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover spinach. With its creamy filling and flaky crust, spinach quiche is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
