I am a huge fan of quiche. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner! My favorite is spinach quiche with cheddar cheese, but you can make so many different variations of quiche by using different vegetables and cheeses. I used to be intimidated by quiche, but it is extremely easy to make.
Ingredients:
1 pie crust
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup grated cheese (or approx 4oz – I often use a half block of Cabot cheddar)
5 oz frozen spinach (half block of frozen spinach like the one below), or fresh spinach (but saute to remove moisture)
salt & pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Pre-bake pie crust for about 5 minutes (poke pie shell with fork)
Stir fry fresh spinach until limp, then chop coarsely and squeeze dry. Or, defrost frozen spinach and press to remove liquid.
Combine spinach with eggs, milk, and salt/pepper. I do this in a large measuring cup to make sure that I don’t exceed the size of my .75L pie pan, and I usually add the milk last so that I have a little leeway as far as not overfilling the pie.
Pour mixture carefully into your pre-baked pie shell.
Bake pie for 30-40 minutes until the pie is set and turning golden.
This is something which should have given in my childhood. Who knows I might be much much healthier. Quiche-really an unqiue and weird name. Would try to ask mother to make that, if she can. Otherwise plain breakfast is not that bad.
I do love quiche and I like spinach, so this recipe is a winning combination for me. It’s so easy to make as well, with just a few ingredients. I might give it a try soon.
This looks soooo good! I’m going to have to try this recipe. Yum!
Yummy! This looks great. I love being able to make quiches like this. They are devoured quickly though in my home.
Delicious! My whole family loves quiche and we prefer the vegetarian flavours. This is so perfect for summer!
Oh yum & made with goat cheese. This looks so great- I need to try this!
My daughter and I both love spinach so this is something we would love to try! Looks fairly easy so hopefully I wont mess it up lol.
I always have the mini quiche. I have never made them myself yet though…

I love quiches, I don`t know why I don’t make them more often, your recipe sounds very easy.
Would you believe I’ve never made a quiche before. I’m going to have to try this one. Sounds yummy.
No other words really needed. Quick, easy and delicious.
I like how spinah is added, plenty of green so it is certainly healthy for the kids who is choosy on vegetables.

I’m a quiche killer. My favorites are leaks, spinach and onion, and of course, quiche Lorraine. I’m gonna try yours!
I love quiche, and my kids will eat anything so long as there are eggs in it! I might have to give this a try!
Since Spinach is my favourite green veggie this one definitely makes the cut to my dining table. Lovely recipe!
This looks so yummy! I will have to try it one weekend because the recipe seems easy enough for me to follow. Thanks for sharing
I must confess, I am not big on quiche at all but my nephew can’t have enough of it.
Breakfast for lunch once a month. And quiche is always in the rotation.
I love quiche and spinach is one of the variants I love. Your post reminds me I should make this again.
Oh I love quiches. My husband is always asking for quiche and I was running out of recipes. Thanks for sharing this one.
This is almost exactly the recipe I make! I love making quiche! Only this is I add in garlic!
This looks incredible. I love quiche! I’m pinning this to Pinterest now. 🙂
