Cheesy Potato & Spinach Quiche (No Crust)


  • Fresh parsley or chives (for color)
  • Hot sauce or salsa (for serving)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or round baking pan for easy cleanup.

2. Prepare the Potatoes

  1. Thinly slice the potatoes using a mandoline slicer or sharp knife. Aim for slices about 1/8-inch thick for even cooking.
  2. Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared dish, slightly overlapping them to form a "crust."

3. Cook the Spinach

  1. If using fresh spinach, heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted (2–3 minutes). Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. If using frozen spinach, squeeze out excess moisture before adding it to the dish.

4. Make the Egg Mixture

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.

5. Assemble the Quiche

  1. Spread the cooked spinach evenly over the layer of potatoes.
  2. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the spinach.
  3. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the top, ensuring it seeps through the layers of potatoes and spinach.

6. Bake

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 35–45 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and golden brown on top. To check doneness, insert a knife into the center—it should come out clean.
  2. Optional: Broil for the last 2–3 minutes to achieve a golden, bubbly top (watch closely to avoid burning).

7. Serve and Enjoy

  1. Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
  2. Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley or chives for added color and freshness.
  3. Enjoy every bite of this creamy, cheesy, and indulgent Cheesy Potato & Spinach Quiche!
  4. Perfect as a standalone dish or paired with a side salad, roasted veggies, or crusty bread for a complete meal.

Tips for Success

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh spinach and high-quality cheese make a noticeable difference in flavor and texture.
  • Switch Vegetables: Substitute spinach with kale, mushrooms, or roasted bell peppers for variety.
  • Add Protein: Stir in cooked bacon, sausage, or diced ham for added heartiness.
  • Store Leftovers: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving.
