CRUSTLESS SWISS CHARD QUICHE



Crustless Swiss Chard Quiche image

I have been working on perfecting the perfect crustless quiche recipe for years. I always use spinach, but I bought some Rainbow Swiss Chard at the local farmer's market today, and I thought I'd give it a try in quiche. I used Rainbow Chard (pink/yellow/white/orange stems---- BEAUTIFUL), but you can use any chard (or try substituting other greens) I do notice that fresh greens give a much better taste than frozen greens though!

Time 1h

Yield 1 quiche, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 sweet onion
1/2 bunch swiss chard
2 1/2 cups shredded cheese
4 eggs
1 cup skim milk
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Wash and dry swiss chard. Cut off the very ends of the stems. Roughly chop (leaving stems intact) the chard.
  • Add onion and Chard to the oil and saute until stems are tender (do not overcook). Add salt & pepper to taste.
  • Meanwhile, grate 2.5 cups of cheese. Use whatever varieties you want/have. Be creative! I used Swiss, Cheddar, Parmesan, and Cojito.
  • Wisk eggs. Add milk and cheese. Fold in the onion/chard mixture. Add salt & pepper to taste, if necessary.
  • Pour into a pie dish that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and no liquid seeps when you poke it with a knife.

Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 bunch chard, ribs and stems removed and leaves chopped
6 ounces oyster or baby portabella (cremini) mushrooms, cut into bite-size pieces
12 eggs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 or 3 dashes hot sauce, such as Tapatio
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray the cavities of a 12-cup muffin tin with the cooking spray.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onion, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the chard and mushrooms and cook until the chard wilts and mushrooms release their moisture, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk the eggs with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese and a few dashes of hot sauce in a large bowl, preferably with a spout. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Evenly divide the chard mixture between the muffin cups. Pour the egg mixture over the top and stir each cup with a fork to make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 to 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan and bake until slightly golden and a toothpick or butter knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
  • Loosen the mini crustless quiches from the muffin cups with a rubber spatula and transfer to a platter for serving.
