Mediterranean Quiche
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Baking Time: 35-45 minutes
Feeds: 3-4, with a salad
1 cup chopped ham
½ cup creamy goat cheese
½ cup kalamata olives
½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
4 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
These are just the ingredients that I have chosen to use to fill my quiche. Feel free to add some of your favorites, like mushrooms, peppers, onions, etc, or take out items that you don’t have.
Preheat the oven to 375F
In the bottom of your pie shell scatter the crumbled goat cheese
Place spinach throughout the bottom of the shell, followed by the ham, olives, and cherry tomatoes
In a bowl, combine eggs and heavy cream, season and whisk to combine
Pour the egg mixture over the filling until it reaches just shy of the top of the pie crust
If necessary, add an additional egg and ¼ cup of cream
Place the pie on a baking sheet and place in the middle of the oven
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the pastry has browned and the eggs have set firm
Remove from oven and let rest 3-4 minutes, then slice and serve, or you can cool down and reheat again later
Serve with a delicious salad and you have a wonderful meal that uses up your leftovers in a unique and delicious way
