How to Make Healthy Gourmet Quiche
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease two 9-inch pie plates or use store bought pie crusts.
- Cover the edges of the pie crusts with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper until light and frothy.
- Finely chop 10 oz frozen chopped spinach, 1 cup broccoli florets, and 1 cup asparagus spears. (Alternatively, pulse in a food processor until finely minced.)
- Add the chopped vegetables and 1/2 cup finely chopped onion to the egg mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Divide the egg mixture evenly between the two prepared pie crusts.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are lightly golden.
- While the quiche bakes, shred 1 cup cheddar cheese.
- Melt the cheddar cheese gently in a saucepan over low heat or in short bursts in the microwave.
- Remove the quiches from the oven and evenly distribute the melted cheddar cheese over the top.
- Return the quiches to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned to your liking.
- Let cool slightly before slicing into 8 servings.
- Enjoy! Experiment with different cheeses (Swiss, provolone, gouda) or add other vegetables (mushrooms, bell peppers) to create your own variations.
