Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb yukon gold potato, peeled and shredded
3 1/4 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 onion, diced
8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
5 ounces Baby Spinach, bagged
3 large eggs
1 cup skim milk
1 ounce gruyere cheese, shredded in a food processor (or on the large holes of a grater)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Lightly grease a 9-inch glass or ceramic pie dish with 1/4 teaspoon oil. Toss potatoes with 1 teaspoon oil and 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Press into an even layer in pie dish, up the sides like a crust. Bake until golden brown at the edges and dry, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
  • Lower the oven to 325 degrees. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened and golden, about 5 minutes. Add remaining teaspoon oil and mushrooms and cook, stirring, until mushrooms release their liquid and most of the liquid evaporates, about 8 minutes. Add spinach and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, just until spinach wilts, about 30 seconds. Let cool slightly.
  • Whisk together eggs, milk and remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper. Spread the mushroom mixture in an even layer in the pie dish, and top with an even layer of the cheese. Carefully pour in egg mixture. Bake until firm around the edges but still wobbly in the center, about 20 minutes. Let cool, and serve warm or at room temperature.

While this recipe is delicious using ingredients exactly as listed, it's also a smart way to make the most of any leftover potatoes and veggies. Use 2-1/2 cups leftover mashed potatoes and whatever cooked vegetables you have on hand. You can also substitute 1/2 pound Italian sausage for the bacon if you want a heartier quiche. -Heather King, Frostburg, Maryland

SPINACH QUICHE WITH SHREDDED HASH BROWN CRUST



Spinach Quiche With Shredded Hash Brown Crust image

Ready, Set, Cook! Special Edition Contest Entry: I got the idea for this recipe from the Fannie Farmer Cookbook. I have always wanted to make quiche, but was daunted by the need to make a proper crust. The Simply Pototoes Shredded Hash Browns seemed to me an ideal way to get around this problem, and makes a delicious and easy to prepare, foolproof crust. The crust complements and enhances the flavors of the spinach and quiche custard.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a more vibrant flavor and color than frozen spinach. If you're using frozen spinach, be sure to thaw and drain it thoroughly before using.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Overcooked spinach will be mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this quiche, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar cheese or a Gruyère cheese would both be good choices.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeaten eggs will make the quiche tough. Beat them just until they are combined.
  • Bake the quiche until the center is set: The quiche is done baking when the center is set. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of the quiche. If the toothpick comes out clean, the quiche is done.
