Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup 2% milk, whole milk, half-and-half, or heavy cream
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- pinch of ground nutmeg
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed very dry
- 4 ounces diced ham (about ¾ cup) (or sub with ¾ cup cooked and crumbled bacon)
- ½ cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (or crumbled feta cheese)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9-inch pie plate or quiche dish with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until well combined; set aside.
- Layer the spinach, ham, and cheese at the bottom of the prepared dish.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered fillings.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the egg mixture is fully set, verified by inserting a sharp knife in the center—it should come out clean.
- Allow the quiche to stand for at least 10 minutes before slicing into wedges and serving.
Notes
For a vegetarian version, omit the ham and use additional vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.
This quiche can be made ahead and enjoyed cold or reheated, making it great for meal prep.
Serve with a side of salad for a complete meal.
