Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spinach and Green Chile Quiche.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C), setting the stage for a delicious quiche.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt, whisking them together until they’re well blended.
Step 3
This mixture will be the foundation of your quiche, so set it aside for now.
Step 4
Next, grab a large mixing bowl and beat the eggs until they’re smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Slowly whisk in the flour mixture, ensuring there are no lumps—this is where the magic begins! Now, it’s time to add some flavor.
Step 6
Stir in the shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese, cottage cheese, thawed and drained spinach, chopped green chiles, and melted butter.
Step 7
Mix everything together until it’s beautifully combined, creating a colorful and tasty filling.
Step 8
Now, take your unbaked pie crusts and divide the mixture evenly between them, making sure each crust gets a generous helping of that delicious filling.
Step 9
Place the quiches in your preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
Step 10
After that, lower the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and let them bake for an additional 35 to 40 minutes.
Step 11
You’ll know they’re ready when they’re lightly browned and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 12
As the quiches bake, your kitchen will fill with an irresistible aroma, making it hard to wait! Once they’re done, let them cool slightly before serving, and enjoy a slice of homemade goodness that’s perfect for any occasion.
