Spinach and Mushroom Quiche
Spinach and Mushroom Quiche
Tom’s away playing in a golf tournament all day today so you know what that means. Lots of cooking! I’m going to have to have a lot of neighbors over or I’m going to have too much food in the house. Again. Anyway, gotta start with breakfast. And today is a PV today. So I’m loading up on Spinach. And just because I’m alone doesn’t mean it doesn’t have to be pretty, eh?
SPINACH AND MUSHROOM QUICHE RECIPE
1 8 oz package sliced mushrooms
1 small bag of baby spinach leaves
olive oil spray
3/4 cup Gruyere cheese, grated or any fat free shredded cheese
2 T Parmesan cheese, grated
3/4 cup 1% or fat free milk
1 1/2 cups egg substitute
1 t salt, 1/2 t pepper
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg
Saute mushrooms in a bit of olive oil spray until soft. Add spinach until wilted and all moisture is absorbed. Spray a 9-inch glass or pie pan with olive oil and place the vegetables at the bottom of it. Sprinkle shredded cheese over them. 
Mix the eggs, salt, pepper, and nutmeg together with the milk. Pour over vegetables and cheese and top with Parmesan. Bake at 350 until the quiche is just set in the center, about 40-45 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This looks delicious! Is the cheese counted as a tolerated food when on cruise still? Thank you
yes, just look for lowfat or fatfree cheese.
This was amazing. I made it Sunday and bring a slice to work for breakfast everyday! Saves me like you wouldn’t even believe!!!
and you can make soooooo many different versions!
Yum, am going to have to make this next. I’m in the UK so have to work out our measurements! I was just wondering how many actual eggs you think would equal the egg substitute as our (very small) supermarket doesn’t sell egg substitute. I am so glad I found this website!
glad you found it too! one egg equals 1/4 cup substitute! let me know how else i can help!
yum!! this looks gorgeous and just what i need sitting in my fridge for when hunger strikes.. its my first day on cruise, im a little scared to have cheese, but its my one absolute must have, do you think i would be ok having a lowfat cheese? Im not sure iv ever seen a zero fat one in the UK?
i ate lowfat cheese throughout the entire diet. and the UK diet actually allowed a small amount. Quiches and meatballs are the best things to have sitting in the fridge! good luck on cruise!
