Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1.5 cups whole milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion
- 3 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and whisk them together with the whole milk until well combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Mince the garlic and add it to the skillet. Cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Then add the cherry tomatoes, halved, and toss everything together.
Evenly spread the vegetables across the skillet. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the top of the mixture to add a golden crust during baking.
Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the quiche cool slightly for 5 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
