Spinach Quiche

It's taken me a long time to get this silly quiche made. We've just moved into a new kitchen (well, a whole new apartment, state, and all) and despite having gone to the store countless times in the past week we always seem to be one to two ingredients short of a meal. But last nights the stars aligned and we wound up with this delicious quiche:

(Thanks to Heather for the awesome pie server!)

May I point out how pretty my crust turned out?

For the insides:

3 ounces room temperature cream cheese
1/3 cup half and half
3 eggs
10 ounces frozen spinach, thawed and drained
4 green onions, sliced
3/4 cup cheese, I used a mixture of white cheddar and monterrey jack
salt and pepper


Beat cream cheese, half & half, and eggs. Add the rest. Pour in unbaked pie shell. Bake at 425 for 25 minutes. Let set for 10 minutes before serving. 


Not hard to make. Promise. Obviously we liked this; we ate half the pie before I could find my camera. We ate our quiche with pan fried potatoes and I set off the fire alarm for the first time in our new apartment! Yay! Fred-the-cat hid under the couch.

  2. Crust was a kind of a fail tonight. So you're right. It'll be both.

  3. Update: I made the quiche. The crust was much better and the quiche was good... BUT! I set the oven to broil instead of bake on accident. I bit crispier on the top than I would like.
