SPINACH AND ONION TART
This is a classic combination for a quiche, but it's lighter, with a whole-wheat and olive oil crust. If you don't have the time to make the crust, store bought will work just fine.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 10-inch tart pan and line it with the pastry. Keep it in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
- Steam the spinach above an inch of boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes, until wilted. You will probably have to do this in batches. I like to use a pasta pot with an insert for steaming spinach, as I can get a lot of it into the insert. Rinse briefly with cold water, squeeze out excess water and chop medium-fine.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until it is tender and beginning to color, about 8 minutes. Add the spinach, thyme and salt and pepper to taste, and stir together. Remove from the heat.
- Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add salt to taste (I use about 1/2 teaspoon) and whisk in the milk. Stir in the onion and spinach mixture and the cheeses. Scrape into the pastry-lined tart pan. Place in the oven and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until tart is set and beginning to color on the top. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or room temperature.

QUICHE ESSENTIALS: SPINACH, MUSHROOM, BACON TART
Is it a quiche, or is it a tart? Well, it is a quiche recipe baked in a tart pan. And if you want to go a bit crazy, I just came up with a savory cream cheese pie crust, that knocks this recipe right out of the park. One more thing: We are using evaporated milk; as opposed to milk or cream. I found that the evaporated milk gives...

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. Chef's Tip: One of the tricks to making a good quiche is the proper balance of liquids in the recipe. There are a lot of places that liquids can hide, and ruin the dish. So, we are essentially going to precook our veggies, and remove as much hidden moisture as possible.
- 3. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place)
- 4. Place your pie crust in a tart pan, and blind bake in a 350f (175c) oven until it begins to brown, about 10 - 12 minutes.
- 5. Place the crust in the fridge, and move on to the filling.
- 6. Chef's Note: If you are looking for a really yummy savory pie crust, here ya go: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/savory-pies/pastry-essentials-cream-cheese-pie-crust.html
- 7. Add the bacon to a large skillet over medium heat.
- 8. Cook until the bacon begins to brown, and renders its fat into the skillet, about 5 - 7 minutes.
- 9. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon, and drain on paper towels.
- 10. Add the onions to the skillet, and cook them in the bacon grease, until they begin to soften, about 3 - 5 minutes.
- 11. Add the garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 60 seconds.
- 12. Add the mushrooms, and cook until they soften and release their moisture, about 5 - 7 minutes.
- 13. Add the spinach, and continue to cook until most of the moisture has evaporated, about 3 - 5 minutes.
- 14. Take the skillet off the heat.
- 15. Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 375f (190c).
- 16. Grate the cheese.
- 17. Chef's Note: You could use different cheeses; however, some cheese get very oily when cooked. I choose Gruyère because it is very stable when heated, and it is a perfect complement to the other ingredients in this recipe.
- 18. Add the eggs, evaporated milk, salt, mustard powder, pepper, and nutmeg to a bowl, and whisk to combine.
- 19. Add the cheese, milk/egg mixture to the skillet, and mix to combine.
- 20. Remove the tart crust from the fridge, and add the filling.
- 21. Add to the preheated oven, and bake until bubbly, and beginning to brown, about 35 - 40 minutes.
- 22. Chef's Note: If you really want to give this recipe an added level of flavor, sprinkle a bit of freshly-grated Pecorino Romano on the top before placing it into the oven, and then sprinkle a bit more on when you take it out.
- 23. PLATE/PRESENT
- 24. Serve while still nice and warm. Enjoy
- 25. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon mixture to a paper-towel-lined plate. 3. Return skillet to medium heat and add onions, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the thyme. Cover and cook 25 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, or until browned. Remove from heat and allow to cool, uncovered, 5 minutes. 4. Whisk together eggs, half-and-half, pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir bacon mixture and onions into eggs; stir to combine. Pour egg mixture into crust. Bake at 375 degrees F for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees F and continue to bake 20 minutes. 5. Heat broiler. Sprinkle tart with Gruyere and broil for 1 to 2 minutes.
