Time 3h

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan
2 cups half-and-half
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Pinch cayenne
2 large eggs plus 2 large egg yolks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups packed baby spinach, plus more for serving (optional)
3/4 cup chopped cooked bacon
1/2 cup grated mozzarella
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a 9-inch pie pan with the butter and sprinkle the grated Parmesan evenly on top. Put the pan on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Whisk the half-and-half, flour, cayenne, eggs, egg yolks, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl. Spread the spinach and bacon out in the prepared pie pan. Pour the egg mixture over top and sprinkle with the cheese and chives.
  • Bake until the quiche is just set in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool and then slice into wedges. Serve with more baby spinach if using.

CRUSTLESS BACON, SPINACH & SWISS QUICHE - LOW CARB



Crustless Bacon, Spinach & Swiss Quiche - Low Carb image

I've read through a lot of recipes to come up with my version of this quiche. I wanted to make one that is crustless and low carb, and this one is a WINNER! But once I start eating it, I just don't want to stop! I thought I could make it ahead so I could have a quick breakfast on work mornings, but this rarely lasts out the day it was made!

CRUSTLESS SPINACH QUICHE WITH BACON & TOMATOES



Crustless Spinach Quiche with Bacon & Tomatoes image

The most amazing things happen when you go into the kitchen and experiment. I've always maintained that most chefs are really just mad scientists anyway. This recipe begins with a quiche that I've done for years... this time I varied the cheeses, and came up with a flavorful dish that even my uber-picky relatives liked....

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 medium onion, chopped
12 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed & drained
4 medium eggs, beaten
1 c pepper jack cheese, shredded
1 c colby cheese, shredded
1/2 c sharp cheddar, shredded
1/2 c greek feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 tsp salt, table variety
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4-6 slice good slab bacon, thick sliced
1 large beefsteak tomato

Steps:

  • 1. Place rack into the middle position, and then preheat oven to 350f (175c).
  • 2. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan, and set aside.
  • 3. Dice the bacon, and fry up in a large skillet, at medium-high heat, until nice and crisp.
  • 4. Remove the bacon from the pan, and allow to drain on paper towels. Set aside.
  • 5. Meanwhile, remove all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the pan, and return to the stovetop.
  • 6. Add chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 4 to 6 minutes.
  • 7. Stir in spinach, reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking until excess moisture has evaporated.
  • 8. Chef's Note: You don't want the mixture to dry out... just evaporate off the puddles of liquid.
  • 9. Remove the pan from the heat, and allow to cool slightly.
  • 10. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, then add the cheese, salt and pepper, and combine. Then add the spinach/onion mixture, and the reserved bacon. Blend together until evenly mixed.
  • 11. Chef's Note: Avoid, at all costs, the pre-shredded cheeses that are out there. In order to keep the cheese from clumping, they toss the cheese with things like powdered wood pulp... And if you have any problems with that, don't worry because the USDA says that wood pulp is completely safe for consumption ;-)
  • 12. Chef's Note: I have always maintained that Feta cheese is an acquired taste... But its use in this dish really kicks up the flavor. So, if you've avoided Feta, I would really recommend you give it a try in this dish.
  • 13. Place mixed ingredients into the prepared pie pan, and then add the tomatoes to the top, and slightly press them into the mixture.
  • 14. Bake in preheated oven until eggs have set, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
  • 15. Cooking Tip: If you have a good cast-iron pan, you could cook the bacon, onions, and spinach, and then add the eggs and cheese, and put the pan into the oven. Making this a rustic, one-pan dish.
  • 16. Presentation Tip: If you have a baking pan that does mini quiches... these make a brilliant appetizer for your guests at your next dinner party.
  • 17. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
