That Shiksa Can Bake – Spinach, Mushroom and Feta Quiche

Real men DO eat quiche! Especially when Nikki makes it for them.

For breakfast this morning, Nic made a crustless quiche with blueberry-corn muffins and fresh grapefruit juice. Who is better than her?

Ingredients

Makes one 10 inch quiche which is enough for 4 really hungry or 6 normal people.
  • 4 oz Feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of egg whites
  • 2 handfuls of fresh spinach, roughly chopped
  • 2 handfuls of mushrooms, sliced (she uses baby bellas)
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 cup of skim milk

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Lightly grease a 10 inch pan (you can use a tarte pan or pie plate)
  • Saute onions and mushrooms until the onions are translucent, add spinach towards the end to wilt.
  • Whisk eggs, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper, milk and cooled veggie mixture in a large bowl.
  • Pour into greased pan and sprinkle Feta on top. Don’t forget to eat the pieces that missed the pan.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes or until edges are brown and top center is fully set.
  • Let cool for a bit, and serve.

Nic thinks sliced tomatoes on top would be a good addition, but I’m a bit weird with tomatoes and eggs.

    Sounds good and healthy!

  • WOWOWOWOW! Was it your birthday, or something? Now, that is a breakfast. YUM! Juice and muffins, too! Vanja makes weinie water soup. Well, he does barbeque and makes a mean risotto. I know. Odd. But these are his three culinary achievements. I don’t complain, though… because I love to cook, and he appreciates it. (most of the time)
    I also love quiche. And, crustless is my favourite as the crust is so rich with the rich creamy filling, I always feel guilty eating both.
    Are you two keeping score? Are you up for breakfast next? :) :) :)

  • that’s what I call a must try recipe!
