Are you craving something creamy, flavorful, and utterly delightful? Look no further than this delicious Ricotta Quiche and Spinach!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 broken mass homemade or store-bought pie crust
  • 1 cup of ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup of fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup of grated cheese Parmesan or Mozzarella
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup of milk cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 chopped garlic clove optional
  • 1/2 chopped onion optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Dough:
  • Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
  • Place the pie crust in a quiche mold. Use a fork to prick the base, which helps prevent bubbling. Bake for 10 minutes, and then set aside.
  • Make the Filling:
  • In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion and garlic until fragrant.
  • Add the fresh spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk cream, ricotta, nutmeg, salt, black pepper, and the cooked spinach mixture. Mix until well blended, then stir in the grated cheese.
  • Assemble and Bake:
  • Pour the filling mixture over the pre-baked crust, spreading it evenly.
  • Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is golden and firm to the touch.
  • Serve:
  • Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve it warm or at room temperature for the best flavor!
