Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 large eggs
1 cup half-and-half
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 5-ounce package baby spinach
1 cup frozen artichoke hearts, thawed and roughly chopped
1/3 cup crumbled garlic-herb goat cheese (about 2 ounces)
1 prepared 9-inch pie crust, thawed if frozen
10 grape tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
4 cups Italian salad blend

Steps:

  • Put a baking sheet in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, 3/4 teaspoon salt and ΒΌ teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach, artichoke hearts and 2 pinches salt. Cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted and the skillet is dry, about 1 minute. Remove the vegetables to a plate lined with a few layers of paper towels; let cool slightly. Carefully pull up the sides of the paper towels and squeeze out most of the liquid; stir the vegetables into the egg mixture.
  • Scatter the goat cheese in the bottom of the pie crust. Pour in the egg mixture, then arrange the tomatoes cut-side up in the eggs. Season with pepper. Carefully place the quiche on the hot baking sheet and bake until set, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar and mustard in a medium bowl; whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil until smooth. When the quiche is almost done, add the salad mix to the bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the quiche into wedges and serve with the salad.

Time 55m

Yield 1 quiche, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons fat free sour cream
1 tablespoon salt
2 1/2 cups fat-free half-and-half
8 eggs
1 tablespoon pepper
1 pinch nutmeg
1 prepared pie crust
3/4 cup chopped spinach
3/4 cup artichoke heart
3 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup reduced fat parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • For the batter:
  • In a medium mixing bowl, beat together the sour cream and the salt. Add the half-and-half, eggs, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • For the crust:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Place a pie tin on top of the pie crust and turn the crust upside down. Place this inverted pie crust in the oven to bake for approximately 10 minutes or until edges begin to lightly brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
  • To assemble:
  • Mix the filling ingredients together. Fill the blind baked pie shell with the filling. Slowly pour some of the batter over the top of the filling, being careful not to have the batter flow over the edges of the crust. Bake for 45 minutes until puffed and browned.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients beforehand: This will ensure that everything is ready to go when you start cooking, making the process smoother and faster.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the overall flavor and quality of your quiche.
  • Don't overcook the quiche: The center should be just set, not dry or crumbly.
  • Let the quiche cool slightly before serving: This will help it to set properly and make it easier to slice.
  • Garnish the quiche with fresh herbs or vegetables before serving: This will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:
