Spinach and Gouda Quiche
This is definitely my new favorite recipe! If you’d prefer to make your own crust for something a bit flakier go ahead, however I find buying the pre-made refrigerater section crusts saves time!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 cups fresh baby spinach
- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 4 oz grated smoke gouda cheese
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- Dash of grated nutmeg
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
- Cook crust per baking instructions until lightly browned (usually about 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees).
- While crust is cooking prepare filling by first sauteing oil, garlic and onions until tender.
- Add spinach; sauté 2 minutes.
- Combine 1 cup milk and remaining ingredients in a bowl; stir well with a whisk.
- Stir in spinach mixture.
- Pour filling into crust. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes.
Quick Notes
I like the creamy, custardy consistency of this quiche when it’s baked for 35 minutes. If you prefer a firmer texture, bake an additional 5 minutes.
