Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 cups Spinach, fresh and chopped
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg, ground
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9-inch pie dish (or similar baking dish) with a little olive oil.
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet, cooking until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.
Season the egg mixture with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mix well.
Add the sautéed spinach and onion mixture, half the cherry tomatoes, and half the feta cheese to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the prepared pie dish, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle the top with the remaining feta cheese, halved cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Place the quiche in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing.
Enjoy your low carb quiche slice warm or at room temperature.
