Best Crustless Spinach Quiche With Bacon Tomatoes Recipes

CRUSTLESS SPINACH QUICHE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9-inch deep dish pie pan (9x2-inch or equivalent) with non-stick cooking spray.
• Cook onions: Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly golden and softened, about 5-6 minutes. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and nutmeg. Season with a scant 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring, for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Immediately remove from heat.
• Add spinach and bacon: Add spinach and bacon to the pan with the onions. Stir to combine.
• Prepare filling: Transfer spinach mixture to prepared pie pan. Add 1 cup of cheddar and ¾ cup of gruyere. Stir to combine. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread the filling out in an even layer.
• Prepare the egg custard: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the eggs, half-and-half and mustard. Season with ¼ teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Whisk well to thoroughly combine.
• Pour custard over spinach mixture + Top with more cheese: Pour the egg custard over the spinach and bacon mixture in the prepared pan. Use a spatula or spoon to gently press the filling down into the eggs. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of each cheese evenly over the quiche.
• Bake: Transfer dish to the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until eggs are just set. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the filling - it should come out clean. Note: If the top browns before the quiche is done baking, lightly tent the top of the dish with aluminum foil.
• Cool & Serve: Remove quiche from oven and allow to cool on the counter for 10 minutes. Garnish, slice and serve quiche. Enjoy!

• Thaw the spinach and squeeze dry. Slice the onion very thinly into half rounds or mince. Grate the cheese.
• Put all of the ingredients into a large bowl and mix with a hand mixer until totally combined. Pour into the prepared pan and spread with a rubber spatula. Place into the middle of the oven and cook for 40 minutes.
• Serve warm. Refrigerate up to 1 week or freeze up to 3 months.
• Serves 6 at 4 net carbs per person.

BACON AND SPINACH CRUSTLESS QUICHE

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 SPINACH QUICHE WITH BACON & TOMATOES

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.
