greek spinache quiche

I am re-posting it here!

Here is the recipe. I eat it with sun dried tomatoes and fancy olives. I am trying to find a way to create master cook file for those of you with it. I took this recipe from the internet, then re-invented it. I used the original recipe as a loose guideline, then I added it my mastercook 8. It has 4 net carbs per serving, 2 fiber grams.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
10 ounces frozen spinach -- chopped
1 cup cream
8 ounces feta cheese -- crumbled
5 whole eggs -- whipped
1/4 cup butter -- melted
1/4 cup Romano cheese -- grated
1/4 cup parmesan cheese -- grated
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons nutmeg
1 cup Portobello mushrooms -- chopped
3 tablespoons red onion slices -- sliced 1/8-inch thick
2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes, oil-packed




preheat oven to 350 degrees


Cook the spinach according to package directions; drain well (pat water out with paper towels). saute mushrooms in butter.(don't use the 1/4 melted butter listed in ingredients. That butter goes in the bowl with the rest of the ingredients).


Combine the spinach, mushrooms, and all the remaining ingredients (except red onions and a little romano/parm cheese) in a mixing bowl, or food processer (I use).
pour it in a butted pie pan (glass preferred).
sprinkle top with shredded romano and parmesan cheese, followed by sliced red onions.
I sometimes save a few nice sliced mushrooms and decorate the top a little.




Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the
center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Serving ideas: This is great with some sun dried tomatoes and olives. I like it better after it has been refridgerated. Tastes great cold!

AAAWWWWW....thank you! I've made it about 10 times. It Gets easier everytime! My husband, is a "sometimes" low carber, he really likes it and does not even realize that it's low carb! I forget to add that I eat it with some sliced raw red onions, along with the sundried tomatoes.

Re: greek spinache quiche

I made a little correction in the recipe. Where it says to "saute the mushrooms in butter", I added (don't use the 1/4 melted butter listed in ingredients. That butter goes in the bowl with the rest of the ingredients). The recipe needs that butter!

Looks yummy to me. I may try it w/o the onions, I'm not much of an onion fan unless they're cooked really really well, nice and soft and squishy!
