Description

A delicious and creamy spinach and cheese quiche that can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (roughly chopped)
  • 1/2 cup chopped turkey ham (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or a small casserole dish with cooking spray or olive oil.

  2. Mix the Eggs and Dairy

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and cottage cheese until smooth. You’ll already notice how creamy it looks — this is where the magic begins.

  3. Add the Cheeses and Seasonings

    Stir in the shredded mozzarella, parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. The cheeses melt into the eggs, making each slice rich and satisfying.

  4. Fold in the Spinach

    Roughly chop the fresh spinach and fold it gently into the egg mixture. If you’re using turkey ham, add it now for extra heartiness. You’ll love how the green specks peek through the golden baked top later.

  5. Pour and Bake

    Pour the mixture into your prepared dish, smoothing out the top. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden. You’ll know it’s ready when a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.

  6. Cool and Serve

    Let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing. This helps the quiche set properly and makes serving cleaner. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes
