Salmon & Spinach Quiche image

A slightly different version of my basic quiche recipe; I just altered the ingredients for a relative who's got a lot of food allergies. This is just a simple quiche that doesn't require a lot of pre-cooked veggies or overly-fancy spices. I use lox pieces in mine, and they actually stay firm in this dish, instead of "flaking" too much like usual raw salmon! It's great cold too, and can easily be prepared ahead of time and warmed up later. Hope you'll try it! :)

Time 55m

Yield 1 quiche, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 9 inch pie shell
4 -6 ounces lox, chopped (I use lox "bits," drained of oil & rinsed well -- regular salmon should work too!)
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
4 eggs
1/2 cup frozen spinach, thawed,drained,& chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, more to taste
1 teaspoon oregano
1 dash black pepper
1 dash nutmeg
1 green onions (green part only) or 3 -5 chives
1/2 cup shredded cheese (preferably swiss or jack; but mozzerella's OK in a pinch!)

Steps:

  • Prepare pie shell according to instructions, if required.
  • Preheat oven to 350*.
  • Sprinkle lox in an even layer on the bottom of pie shell.
  • Beat eggs, gradually adding milk.
  • Add spinach, garlic, mustard, oregano, pepper, nutmeg, onion/chives, and half of the cheese.
  • Stir well.
  • Pour egg mixture into pie crust.
  • Top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake at 350* for 45-55 minutes, or until quiche is completely firm.
  • (CAUTION: Cooking time may vary, depending on how new your oven is! I have an ancient electric one from the 70's, and usually start"babysitting" quiche after the first 30 minutes are up. If it doesn't wiggle AT ALL when you pull out the oven rack to check,) When cooked, remove from oven and let quiche cool for 10-15 minutes.
  • Enjoy!

I thought this quiche was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I would definitely make this quiche again, but I would make a few changes. I would use a different type of cheese, and I would add some chopped vegetables to the filling.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my quiche didn't turn out very well.

I added a bit of chopped dill to the filling, and it really enhanced the flavor.

I didn't have any salmon on hand, so I used tuna instead. It turned out great!

The crust was a bit soggy, but the filling was delicious.

The quiche was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was a good recipe.

This quiche was easy to make and turned out perfectly. I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still tasted delicious.

I loved the combination of salmon and spinach in this quiche. It was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables.

This quiche was a hit with my family! The salmon and spinach filling was creamy and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this again.
