Spinach And Feta Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F.
• In large skillet, saute onion and garlic in butter, app. 5 minuets or until just soft. Remove from heat.
• Stir in 6 oz. cheddar, the feta cheese, mushrooms, and spinach. Mix well; place into pie crust.
• In medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour over spinach mixture, poking holes to allow the egg mixture to seep inches.
• Bake 15 minutes. Top with remaining 6 oz. cheddar, continue baking 40 minutes, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Chop onion and saute in oil 5 minutes.
• Add frozen spinach in the 3 tablespoons oil and continue cooking, stirring often until all liquid is gone.
• Transfer to a bowl and add remaining ingredients.
• Pour mixture into unbaked pie crust and bake degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until knife inserted into center comes out clean.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, in a bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Add the butter and, using a pastry blender, cut it in until the mixture resembles coarse meal. In a small bowl, using a fork, beat the egg with 2 Tbs. of the ice water. Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in the egg mixture and 2 more Tbs. ice water. Using the fork, mix lightly, adding more ice water as needed until the mixture holds together. Pat into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• On a floured pastry board or other work surface, roll out the pastry into a round about 13 inches in diameter. Transfer to an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, turn under the edges to make them flush with the pan rim, and prick the bottom in several places with a fork. Press a piece of aluminum foil, shiny side down, onto the crust, and freeze for about 30 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 425°F
• Bake the foil-lined pastry shell for 8 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until the crust looks dull, about 4 minutes more. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with the Swiss cheese, and reduce the oven temperature to 375°F
• Meanwhile, make the filling: Drain the spinach and squeeze dry. In a large sauté pan over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil. Add the yellow and green onions and garlic and sauté until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the spinach and sauté, stirring, until completely wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the dill and pepper and continue sautéing for about 2 minutes more. Taste and adjust the seasonings; the mixture should taste peppery. Let cool for 5 to 6 minutes.
• In a pitcher or bowl, whisk the eggs until blended, then whisk in the half-and-half and cream. Crumble the feta cheese into the spinach and stir in the egg mixture. Pour into the prebaked shell.
• Bake until the filling is puffed and light brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with the olives and serve.
• Serves 6.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Set the frozen spinach out on a plate at room temperature to soften slightly.
• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and a few turns of black pepper and cook until fragrant, 1 more minute. Add the flour and stir to combine, then stir in the spinach and a good pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the spinach is heated through and the mixture is combined. Stir in the feta, heavy cream, lemon juice and hot sauce, then remove it from the heat. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
• Roll out half of the pie dough on a lightly floured surface until it is a large round, about 1/4 inch thick. (If using store-bought pre-rolled dough, simply unroll it onto your surface.) Spread on half the spinach mixture in an even layer so that it covers the dough. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough like a pizza into 8 triangular wedges. Roll up each section starting at the wide end. Transfer the rugelach to the lined baking sheets, placing them 1 inch apart. Repeat with the other half of the dough and spinach filling.
• Lightly brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle with sea salt.
• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly and enjoy. Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in a toaster oven.

Steps:

• Pulse together the flour, sugar and salt in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add about a third of the chilled butter cubes and process until the butter is absorbed. Add the remaining butter and pulse until the butter is the size of peas. Pulse in the vinegar. Then add the ice water, pulsing quickly a few times to combine. Squeeze some dough between your fingers--it should just hold its shape without feeling wet. If it is crumbly, add more ice water a tablespoon at a time. (Pulse quickly, do not overwork or the dough will be tough.0 Wrap the dough loosely in a large piece of plastic wrap, then firmly press and flatten the dough into a thin round. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Lightly flour a work surface, then roll the dough into an 11- to 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Center the dough in a 9-inch pie plate, with an even overhang all around. Fold the edges and flute or crimp. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Press a piece of foil over the chilled crust, then fill with pie weights, raw beans or rice. Bake to set the crust, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and bake until the crust is light brown, 5 to 10 minutes more. Let cool slightly before adding the filling.
• Sprinkle the shallots evenly into the crust. Combine the artichoke hearts with the feta and sprinkle it in an even layer over the shallots.
• Whisk together the half-and-half, parsley, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
• Pour the custard over the filling. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake until set, 35 to 50 minutes. Let cool at least 30 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Lightly grease a 10-inch quiche/tart pan (or a pie plate).
• In a medium frying pan, cook diced onion with a bit of vegetable oil (or cooking spray) over medium-high heat until translucent and tender. Add in fresh spinach and cook until just wilted. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, and baking powder. Whisk in milk, then stir in spinach-onion mixture.
• Pour quiche base into prepared pan. Top with feta cheese.
• Bake for 25 minutes, or until center is set and the outside edge is golden brown.
• Let set for 5 minutes, then slice and serve.

Steps:

• STEP 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. If your frozen spinach is not already thawed, thaw it in the microwave. Empty the box into a colander and let it drain while you begin to prepare the rest.
• STEP 2: Quickly rinse the mushrooms and slice them thinly. Place the sliced mushrooms in a skillet coated with non-stick spray, add the minced garlic, and sprinkle a little salt and pepper. Turn the heat on to medium-high and saute the mushrooms until they release all of their moisture and no more water remains on the bottom of the skillet (5-7 minutes).
• STEP 3: Spray a pie dish with non-stick spray. Squeeze the rest of the water out of the spinach and spread it out on the bottom of the pie dish. Next add the cooked mushrooms and crumbled feta.
• STEP 4: In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs until fairly smooth. Add the milk, parmesan, and another small sprinkle of pepper. Whisk to combine. (This step can be completed while the mushrooms are cooking) Pour this mixture into the pie dish over the spinach, mushrooms, and feta.
• STEP 5: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over top. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet for easy transfer into the oven. Place the quiche into the preheated oven and bake until it is golden brown on top and the center is solid. Every oven is different but this should take between 45 minutes and an hour. Slice and serve!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Saute garlic and onion in butter until lightly browned, about 7 minutes. Stir in spinach, mushrooms, feta and 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mixture into pie crust.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into the pastry shell, allowing egg mixture to thoroughly combine with spinach mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle top with remaining Cheddar cheese, and bake an additional 35 to 40 minutes, until set in center. Allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• In a bowl with a pastry blender or in a small food processor blend together flour, butter, shortening, and a pinch salt until mixture resembles meal. Add water and toss until incorporated, adding additional water if necessary to form a dough. Pat dough onto bottom and one half inch up sides of a 7 1/2-inch tart pan with removable fluted rim or a 9-inch pie plate and bake shell in bottom third of oven until set and pale golden, about 7 minutes.
• While shell is baking, in a large skillet sauté bell pepper in oil over moderately high heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add spinach and sauté, stirring, until wilted and tender, about 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat and season spinach mixture with salt and pepper. In a small bowl whisk together eggs and cream.
• Sprinkle feta over bottom of shell and arrange spinach mixture on top. Pour cream mixture over spinach and bake quiche on a baking sheet in middle of oven 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350°F. and bake until set, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Two hours before you want to make the quiche, take the dough out of the freezer to defrost.
• When you're ready to start, lay the dough into either a 10 inch quiche or springform baking pan, making sure you have enough dough to form a crust around the edge.
• The crust should come 1 to 1 1/2 inches up the side of the pan.
• Crumble the feta cheese onto the bottom of the crust.
• Pour the olive oil into a saucepan and, when it is heated, throw in the spinach and cook until wilted.
• Spread the spinach over the feta cheese.
• Beat the eggs, garlic and creme fraiche together.
• Pour over top of the feta cheese and spinach.
• Place cherry tomatoes on top of the quiche.
• Sprinkle chives and ground pepper on top.
• Bake at 350 F or 180 C for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F
• Chop onion and saute in oil 5 minutes.
• Add frozen spinach in the 3 tablespoons oil and continue cooking, stirring often until all liquid is gone.
• Transfer to a bowl and add remaining ingredients.
• Pour mixture into unbaked pie crust and bake degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until knife inserted into center comes out clean.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375ºF.
• Whisk eggs, dressing and milk until blended.
• Place spinach in 24 mini muffin pan cups sprayed with cooking spray; top with cheese. Spoon egg mixture over ingredients in cups.
• Bake 17 to 20 min. or until centers are set and tops are golden brown. Immediately run knife around edge of each quiche, then remove from pan to serve.

Steps:

• To make the pastry, tip the flour, herbs if using and butter into a bowl, then rub together with your fingertips until completely mixed and crumbly. Add 4 tbsp cold water, then bring everything together with your hands until just combined. Roll into a ball for use straight away or chill for up to 2 days.
• Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a round about 4cm larger than a 22cm tart dish (the one I use is of glass and about 4 cm deep). Use your rolling pin to lift it up, then drape over the tart case so there is an overhang of pastry on the sides. Using a small ball of pastry scraps, push the pastry into the corners of the dish and run the rolling pin over the top to trim. Chill in the fridge or freezer for 20 mins. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
• Lightly prick the base of the tart with a fork, line the tart case with a large circle of greaseproof paper or foil, then fill with baking beans. Blind-bake the tart for 20 mins, remove the paper and beans, then continue to cook for 5-10 mins until biscuit brown.
• While the tart case cooks, in a frying pan saute the chopped pepper in butter until softened (about 2 minutes). Then add the spinach and sauté just till wilted. Finally add the chopped sun dried tomatoes and turn off the heat.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Gradually add the creme fraiche, then stir in the dried oregano and season. You may not need salt as the feta will provide quite a bit. When the case is ready, sprinkle the crumbled feta over the base, then the sautéed spinach. peppers and tomato and finally pour over the egg mix. Bake for 20-25 mins until set and golden brown. Leave to cool in the case, then remove from the tin.
