Spinach, artichoke & mushroom quiche
Spinach, artichoke & mushroom quiche is the perfect dinner to make when you’re almost out of groceries and you have no time to make dinner.
This is also known as my life every day now.
I am nonstop from the moment I wake up to the moment my head crashes into the pillow. Since going back to work and moving life got much crazier, but I am on a mission to lose the last of my pregnancy weight regardless. This is a healthy and simple dish that I’ve made a few times already. The crust baking in the oven makes my home smell like an old Italian bakery in the middle of the night, and the cleanup is as easy as washing the bowl you used for the mixture. Be lazy like me and keep frozen pie crusts on hand and you can have a fantastic dinner ready in a flash.
Spinach, artichoke, & mushroom quiche
Makes 2 quiches
Ingredients:
2 frozen pie crusts*
6 eggs
1/4 cup skim milk
1 15 oz can artichoke hearts, chopped
1 box frozen spinach, defrosted and strained of all liquid
4 large button mushrooms, sliced
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Beat your eggs in a large bowl. Add the milk, artichoke hearts, spinach and mushrooms.
3. Remove the pie crusts from the freezer and spread the mixture evenly in each crust.
4. Bake until cooked through and the crust is golden, about 20 minutes for us.
5. Enjoy paired with your favorite salad!
*Whole Foods sells a great pie crust with only 5 ingredients. Look for that one!
And now I’m off to simultaneously play with my baby, call in a work order, unload the dishwasher and watch the news.
PS- This tastes even better the next day.

Quiche is one of my favorite, easy, and yet somehow “fancy” recipes. This sounds awesome!

hey sabrina- this sounds awesome- question: what do you usually serve it with or is it bulky enough itself?

@jess, If I might chime in, it’s a pretty light dish. So Sabrina and I have been making salads on the side with some extra feta, etc. to make it a little more filling overall. Or that might be because I come home from work starving!

It looks like there I’d cheese on top- is there? Didn’t see it on the ingredient list. Thanks for the tip! I have a 3 mo so getting any food on the table is a huge task!

@Keri, You know what? You’re right! I have made this a bunch of times already, and I forgot that I used shredded mozzarella and a bit of parmigiano reggiano the first time. I obviously didn’t miss it much though as I completely forgot!

I can’t wait to make this for dinner tonight!

One more question….have you ever substituted rice or almond milk for the skim milk? Do you think it would work?

@Ashley @ Hop Skip Jump, Sorry I’m so late to reply. I have NOT done that but I’ve done it with no milk. It’s just denser without milk. I bet it would be fine with another type of milk.
