Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 5-ounce package chopped mixed winter greens, such as kale and/or chard (about 8 cups)
Kosher salt
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed (half of a 17-ounce package)
All-purpose flour, for dusting
5 ounces goat cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 ounce)
4 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Add the greens and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens wilt and most of the liquid evaporates, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until large enough to fit in a 9-inch pie plate. Ease into the pie plate and trim the edge; crimp if desired. Scatter the goat cheese and Parmesan in the crust, then top with the sauteed greens.
  • Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl; pour over the greens. Bake until the crust is golden brown and the quiche is set, about 20 minutes. Slice into wedges.

CRUSTLESS QUICHE WITH GREENS, HERBS, AND GOAT CHEESE



Crustless Quiche With Greens, Herbs, and Goat Cheese image

Easy and nutritious, this quiche is packed with protein, calcium, and iron. You can use any type of greens you like: swiss chard, kale, collards, mustard greens, spinach, etc. I like a mix of spinach and kale, two superfoods. Serve alone for a light dinner or for breakfast, or with a salad or raw veggies for lunch at work.
