Three Cheese Spinach And Bell Pepper Quichepie Recipes

SPINACH QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375° with a baking sheet on the center rack. Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate (about 1-inch deep). Fold the edges of the crust under and crimp as desired. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
• Melt the butter over medium heat in a medium skillet. Add the onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring now and then, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 2 minute. Remove from heat.
• Whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, sour cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Stir in the spinach, cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, and bell pepper mixture. Pour into the prepared crust.
• Place the quiche on the preheated baking sheet and bake until it has puffed in the center, is just set and the crust is golden, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer the quiche to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or room temperature.

SPINACH-CHICKPEA QUICHE WITH BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet on the lowest oven rack; preheat to 425 degrees F. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the chickpeas, spinach, scallion whites, coriander, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, tossing, until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a colander to drain; let cool slightly. Wipe out the skillet and reserve.
• Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Spread the spinach mixture in the pie crust and top with the cheese; pour in the egg mixture. Bake on the hot baking sheet until the eggs are set and lightly browned on top, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the reserved skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water; cover and cook until the bell peppers soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in the scallion greens, then remove from the heat. Add the lemon juice and toss. Cut the quiche into wedges; serve with the bell peppers.
