Quiche is a classic French dish that is typically made with a flaky pastry crust, a creamy custard filling, and a variety of savory fillings such as cheese, bacon, and vegetables. While quiche can be a time-consuming dish to make, there are several easy quiche recipes that can be made using yogurt instead of heavy cream. Yogurt is a healthier alternative to heavy cream, and it also helps to make the quiche more moist and tender. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying quiche that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

YOGURT SPINACH QUICHE
This recipe is crustless because my family prefers it that way, but you can easily add your own if you'd like. Simple and very tasty, the yogurt adds something special, and helps my little one who struggles with non fermented milk to digest easily. Amazingly there is no flour in this recipe, just make sure the spinach isn't runny still before adding it to the other ingredients. Adapted from The Vegetarian Mother's Cookbook.

EASY HOMEMADE YOGURT
This is a super-easy way someone taught me to make homemade yogurt that requires only 2 ingredients. Pay attention to the notes. Halve the recipe if this is your first time. Usually because store-bought yogurts have lots of additives first-time yogurts do not turn out perfectly. But save 1 cup and use it as base the next time and you will see how well it turns out.

Steps:
- Pour the milk into a pot and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Reduce heat and simmer, about 10 minutes; do not let it boil over.
- Remove pot from heat and allow to sit for 30 to 60 minutes. Dip your finger into the milk every once in a while to determine when you can leave your finger in the milk for 10 to 15 seconds without burning. Pour in the yogurt; there is no need to stir.
- Put the lid on the pot and carefully wrap a blanket around it. Place the wrapped pot in a slightly warm place where it will be undisturbed for 6 to 10 hours; overnight is best. Transfer to the refrigerator to allow the yogurt to continue to thicken.

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your quiche a delicious and colorful filling. Some good options include spinach, broccoli, mushrooms, zucchini, and bell peppers.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender but still have a bit of crunch.
- Use a good quality yogurt. This will make your quiche creamy and flavorful. Greek yogurt is a good option because it is thick and tangy.
- Season the quiche well. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or thyme.
- Bake the quiche until it is set. This will usually take about 30-35 minutes.
- Let the quiche cool slightly before slicing. This will help it hold its shape.
Conclusion:
Quiche is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a quiche that everyone will love.
