Vegetable Quiche

This recipe was sent in by Aubrey B. She adapted it from a recipe over at For The Love of Cooking

Ingredients:
  • 2 russet potatoes, peeled and grated
  • 2 medium/large tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 medium zucchini, chopped
  • Handful of spinach or kale, chopped
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 5 eggs
  • Splash of milk
  • Big spoonful of greek yogurt
  • Several ounces of goat cheese
  • Dill spice blend and salt/pepper to taste
Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Coat a 3 quart round casserole dish with cooking spray.

Peel, then shred, the two potatoes onto 2 paper towels; add another two paper towels to the top and press all the liquid out of the potatoes. Smash the shredded potatoes all over the bottom and sides of the pie pan, making sure to press them firmly. Spray with cooking spray and season with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste. Bake in the oven for 12-13 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.

Sprinkle the diced tomato, spinach/kale, zucchini, carrot and ½ the goat cheese on top of the potatoes Beat the eggs with the milk and yogurt and season with dill, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper. Pour the egg mixture on top of the veggies then top with the remaining goat cheese.

Place in the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center of the quiche comes out clean – don’t overcook. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Enjoy.
