Cheesy Spinach Quiche
Jun 30, 2024 02:25 AM
Using my favorite quiche recipe as the starting point, this cheesy spinach quiche is a savory, creamy, and satisfying option for brunch, lunch, or dinner. As good as the savory egg-custard filling is, it somehow becomes even BETTER paired with my buttery flaky pie crust! This one is always a crowd pleaser.
As the totally underrated and unassuming cornerstone of any brunch spread, quiche is such a versatile dish. With a perfectly balanced base of milk (or milk and cream) and eggs, a good quiche recipe can be an endless drawing board for your favorite add-ins. I spent many, many hours in the kitchen fine-tuning my quiche recipe for you (and me!) to have fun adding different meats, seafood, cheeses, herbs, and vegetables to the mix.
Today’s recipe is one of my most beloved iterations. Cheesy and rich, yet light and delicate, each bite of this cheesy spinach quiche literally melts in your mouth. It’s no surprise this version has become a family favorite, always occupying a coveted space on the brunch table.
