Crustless Spinach Quiche
Ingredients
Cooking spray
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
4 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 cup small curd cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
4 Tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups grated Colby or Cheddar
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray an 9 by 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Defrost spinach in microwave safe container. Microwave and cook on high power for 4 minutes. Allow it to cool. Squeeze out all of the liquid out of the spinach and put it into a medium bowl.
3. Combine the eggs, sour cream, cottage cheese, Parmesan, flour, salt, and pepper, in a blender or food processor and blend until the mixture is smooth, about 1 minute.
4. Pour the mixture into the bowl with the spinach. Add the Colby or Cheddar and stir with a spoon until well mixed. Pour the spinach mixture into the baking dish and smooth out the top.
5. Bake until set, about 40-45 minutes. Remove the baking dish from the oven. It will be puffed up, but will fall slightly as it cools. Allow it to cool. Cut it into squares and serve. Refrigerate leftovers.
