    What Is Quiche?

    Quiche is a popular French dish, made with a pastry crust filled with eggs, cheese, cream, and sometimes vegetables and chicken, seafood or beef, and then baked in the oven.

    This delicious savory tart can be served either warm or cold for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

    Frozen or Fresh Spinach

    Fresh spinach adds so much flavour to the quiche, moreover it is much more nutritious and has a better texture.

    On the other hand, frozen spinach is convenient. However, to use frozen spinach, you need to get rid of all the excess water it holds, otherwise, the quiche will turn out soggy.

    Crustless Spinach Quiche Ingredients

    All the ingredients needed to make the recipe.

    To make this crustless quiche, you will need to have the following ingredients.

    • Eggs
    • Mozzarella
    • Cheddar cheese
    • Heavy cream
    • Fresh Spinach
    • Olive oil
    • Garlic
    • Onion
    • Salt & Ground black pepper: To taste.
    • Red pepper flakes

    “See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.”

    Variations & Substitutions

    • You can replace the mozzarella with parmesan if you like, but you will need to reduce the salt because parmesan is a little bit salty.
    • Add in some veggies, such as potatoes, zucchini, Vegan Roasted Cauliflower, Sauteed Whole Mushrooms, Caramelized Mushrooms And Onions or Roasted Green Beans and Carrots.
    • Feel free to add in some cooked beef, chicken or smoked salmon.
    • Use a combination of cheese, such as feta, cottage cheese or Homemade Ricotta Cheese.

    One: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat, then add the minced onion, garlic, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes, and stir from time to time until the onion softens ( You can go further and caramelise the onion if you like).

    Two: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet in batches (if you use a small skillet), then stir until the spinach becomes wilted.

    Three: Next, Spread the spinach mixture in an ovenproof baking pan, set aside.

    Four: In a medium-sized bowl, crack the eggs, add the heavy cream and whisk together until combined.

    Five: Add mozzarella and cheddar cheese to the egg mixture, and stir well.

    Six: Pour the eggs over the spinach into the baking tray and bake at 180C/ 356F for 20-25 minutes.

    Seven: Garnish with chopped parsley (optional), and serve immediately.

    Expert Tips!

    • Don't use frozen spinach because it will produce a lot of water you don't need in this recipe. Make sure to use fresh spinach.
    • I have used a 14x24 cm baking pan in making this recipe; you may also use a deep pie dish; don't use a shallow dish.
    • It is important to saute onion, garlic and fresh spinach before adding them to the quiche to prevent it from getting soggy.

    Serving Ideas

    Serve this dish with No-Noodle Eggplant Lasagna, Pasta Al Forno, Italian Shrimp Pasta Salad, Crispy Cauliflower Pizza Crust or Chicken Arrabbiata Pasta for dinner.

    This dish is also delicious with Smoked Salmon Pasta Salad or Tomato And Onion Salad for lunch.
