Crustless Spinach Quiche

We decided on breakfast for dinner tonight, aka "brinner" =)
This dish would be a wonderful addition to a brunch as well.




So here is my twist on a simple spinach quiche!

YOU WILL NEED:

5 Large Eggs
1/4 yellow onion
1 cup cooked & drained chopped spinach
1 cup Monterey & Cheddar cheese (& some additional for topping)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 TBSP butter
Bread crumbs
Seasonings:
Salt & Pepper
sour cream (optional)


DIRECTIONS:

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees
& butter a 9 in pie pan or quiche dish

cook and drain spinach, set aside.

Now you want to put your 1/4 yellow onion in the food processor and pulse until finely chopped.

Saute your onions with 1 TBSP butter and a little salt.



Now put 5 whole Eggs into food processor..


Add to that, onions, salt and pepper.
Pulse 6 or 7 times to blend well.


Now add your cooked & drained spinach, 1 cup of shredded cheese and 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese


Pulse again until mixed very well.


Pour into your buttered Pie pan or quiche dish


Cook in a preheated oven of 325 degrees for 20 minutes.
Then you want to take out of the oven and spread a light, even amount of bread crumbs on the top
of the quiche.


Then a thin layer of shredded cheese on top of that.


Return to oven for 15 more minutes, then put under the broiler for 2 minutes to crisp the breadcrumbs and cheese.


Let it cool for a few minutes before cutting into pie size pieces.
We topped ours with a little sour cream but that's totally up to you! =)
With a few adjustments to this recipe you could make mini quiches in muffin tins!
Hope you enjoy!
