Spinach Mushroom and Feta Crustless Quiche
Description
This quiche combines several layers of flavor starting with mushrooms sautéed to remove moisture along with garlic and salt. The thawed and drained spinach is layered alongside crumbled feta in a greased pie plate before pouring over a seasoned egg and milk mixture blended with Parmesan and black pepper. Shredded mozzarella tops the dish before baking at 350ºF for about 50 minutes until a golden crust forms and the interior reaches a safe temperature of 160ºF.
The absence of crust places focus on the tender vegetable and cheese fillings, while the cheeses add creaminess and a slightly salty tang. The cooking method ensures a firm but moist set, yielding a sliceable quiche that holds well.
This quiche can be served warm or at room temperature, making it versatile for brunch or a simple dinner with a salad. The combination of spinach, mushrooms, and feta creates a balance of earthiness and tang.
Ingredients
- 1 oz. box spinach $1.34, frozen, chopped
- 8 oz. mushrooms $1.97
- 1 clove garlic $0.04, minced
- 1/8 tsp salt $0.01
- 1 Tbsp cooking oil $0.04, divided
- 2 oz. feta cheese $1.26
- 4 large egg $2.43
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese $1.46, grated
- 1/4 tsp black pepper $0.04
- 1 cup milk $0.18
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese $1.17, shredded
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Thaw and squeeze as much moisture out the spinach as possible.
- Rinse any dirt or debris from the mushrooms, then slice thinly. Mince the garlic.
- Add the mushrooms, garlic, salt, and a ½ Tbsp cooking oil to a skillet. Sauté the mushrooms over medium heat until they have released all of their moisture and it has evaporated from the skillet. No water should remain in the skillet.
- Brush the other ½ Tbsp cooking oil inside a 9-inch pie plate. Layer the mushrooms, spinach, and crumbled feta into the pie plate.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Parmesan, pepper, and milk.
- Pour the egg mixture into the pie plate over the spinach, mushrooms, and feta. Top with the shredded mozzarella.
- Bake the crustless quiche in the preheated 350ºF oven for about 50 minutes, or until it is golden brown on top and the internal temperature reaches 160ºF. Slice and enjoy!
