Course:
Breakfast
Servings: 6Slice
Author: Tony Bailey
Ingredients
2CupsCooked Quinoa
5Eggs
6ouncesfrozen spinach
3/4CupShredded Cheddar Cheese
1/2CupMilk
Instructions
Beat one egg and combine with the quinoa in a mixing bowl and then spread evenly into a round, well greased 9-inch pie pan
Bake the crust for 20 minutes at 375 degrees (perfect for toaster ovens)
Cook the frozen spinach in a microwave and let it cool while the crust cooks
Beat the 4 remaining eggs and mix in the milk
Into the crust, place the spinach and then the cheese. Pour in the eggs. Some will likely leak through the crust, that's ok.
Into the same 375 degree (toaster) oven, cook the quiche for 35 minutes. Start checking around 30. To test for doneness, use a fork or toothpick, stick in the middle and see if it comes out clean.
