This egg-free quiche recipe with broccoli is our most popular vegan quiche recipe here on TheSpruce. Roll out the pie crust and press it into a large fluted deep tart pan (or a deep dish pie pan). Your’s has way way too much spinach and too much cheese – its nothing more than spinach and cheese pie. A very full-flavoured quiche recipe, made with spicy chorizo, roasted red pepper and cheese.
Hi Ann, the recipe calls for wringing the frozen spinach to remove the extra water, but you can certainly use fresh spinach if you prefer; you would just need to cook the spinach first and squeeze out any excess water. This mushroom quiche recipe is slightly adapted from one we found in a 2002 issue of Martha Stewart magazine.
Of course, these are stereotypes and we should avoid them, because the real rub with quiche is when it is made badly: overcooked, under-seasoned and served days old. For extra colour, add 1/4 cup chopped roasted red peppers to filling before pouring into pie crust.
Update 4/12/12: After reading a few comments about the softness of the quiche, I realize it would have been helpful to mention at the outset that this quiche is a bit softer and creamier than most. Overall this was an easy recipe to execute and led to an impressive end result.
Tap or gently shake the dish; remove quiche from oven when the center is almost set but still jiggles a bit. Just empty the bag in the skillet with a tiny bit of butter to only remove the stem on regular spinach as they are woodsy.
