Greek Quiche
- 1 unbaked 9" pie crust shaped in deep quiche dish or pie pan
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese (or more if desired)
- 1½ cup grated light flavored cheese like mozzarella or provolone
- 8 oz frozen chopped spinach - defrosted and squeezed dry
- 1 T butter
- 1 T olive oil
- ½ cup minced white onion
- 1 clove minced garlic or dash of garlic powder
- 1 ½ cup heavy cream or Half and Half or combination of the two
- 4 eggs - beaten
- 1 t salt
- 1/8 t fresh ground pepper
- 1/8 t fresh grated nutmeg
Preheat oven to 400F
Melt butter and oil in small skillet.
Saute onion and garlic over med heat until onion is translucent. Add spinach and saute for 2 more minutes. Let cool slightly-about 10 minutes.
Sprinkle about ½ c mozzarella/provolone over crust.
Spread spinach/onion over cheese.
Crumble feta over onion and sprinkle remaining mozzarella/provolone.
Beat cream, eggs, nutmeg, salt and pepper together with whisk. Pour over pie crust slowly so all liquid is absorbed. Grate a bit of nutmeg over the top for added color.
Bake for about 35-40 minutes until quiche is puffy and golden and center does not seem liquid when moved. Allow to cool at least 10-15 minutes before cutting.
Quiche can be eaten hot, cold or at room temperature.
