I haven't posted a breakfast recipe in awhile. Usually we either have fried or scrambled eggs with corned beef hash or bacon. Last week I bought a container of cottage cheese, and fully intended to eat it. Well that was until Friday came around, and I came to the realization that it was just going to go to waste. I decided instead of wasting it, I would make a quiche for breakfast one day over the weekend. The joy of making quiche is that you can use whatever you have in your fridge! I added spinach, scallions (green onions), garlic and provolone to mine. This very may well be the only way I get my son to eat spinach at the moment! Since it was on a whim, it was also crust-less. I am intrigued about all the future flavor combinations that I can try, and will definitely be adding them to this post as I try them!
Makes about 8 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 1 (16 oz) container of cottage cheese, I used small curd but you can use whatever fat content and curd size you prefer
- 1 (10 oz) package of frozen, chopped spinach; thawed and liquid squeezed out
- 1 bunch of scallions (green onions), white parts only, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon of jarred minced garlic
- 1/4-1/3 lb of slicing provolone, ripped into bite-sized pieces
- Preheat oven to 325ºF. Spray baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs. Then using a large spoon, add and mix each ingredient to the bowl. Pour into prepared baking dish.
- Bake uncovered for about 35-40 minutes. Mixture will rise slightly and start to brown. Let stand about 5 minutes, serve.
