Make a Delicious Quiche with a Healthy Quinoa Crust
- 2 Cups Cooked Quinoa
- 5 Eggs
- 6 ounces frozen spinach
- 3/4 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1/2 Cup Milk
- 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.
