Crustless Quiche With Greens, Herbs, and Goat Cheese image

Easy and nutritious, this quiche is packed with protein, calcium, and iron. You can use any type of greens you like: swiss chard, kale, collards, mustard greens, spinach, etc. I like a mix of spinach and kale, two superfoods. Serve alone for a light dinner or for breakfast, or with a salad or raw veggies for lunch at work.

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons breadcrumbs
1 large leek
2 cups chopped kale
1 cup chopped spinach
5 egg whites
4 whole eggs
1/4 cup low-fat milk
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/4 teaspoons dried tarragon
1 1/4 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 ounces soft fresh goat cheese

Steps:

  • Spray a 9-inch glass pie dish with non-stick spray and sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the bottom and sides of the dish. Shake the dish around to distribute evenly.
  • Slice the white and light green parts of the leek 1/2 inch thick. Boil 4 cups of salted water and add leeks. Boil 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add spinach and kale. Set aside for 30 minutes for greens to wilt and soften. Drain, rinse with cold water, squeeze out the water, and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Whisk egg whites until frothy and then whisk in the whole eggs. Whisk in milk, salt, pepper, nutmeg, tarragon, and basil.
  • Scatter the greens mixture in the bottom of the pie plate over the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle on the goat cheese. Pour egg mixture over the greens and bake 25 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before serving.

This quiche was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter version with more vegetables.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my quiche turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This quiche was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some additional seasoning.
