Low Carb, Gluten-Free, Spinach Quiche!

I follow the blog Frugal Feeding, and am always finding delicious things that I’d love to make. This particular recipe was just too good to pass up. I’d been looking for a good quiche recipe, and couldn’t have asked for a better one to meet my dietary requirements. AND it’s delicious too! Even Linnaea chowed down on some (and she’s a picky 2 year old!)

Because his blog is out of the UK, I thought I’d help you all out a little bit and convert some of the measurements 🙂 To see the original recipe, go HERE

Crustless Spinach and Ricotta Quiche

Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 10oz fresh spinach

• 2 cloves of garlic, crushed

• A little olive oil

• 1/2 cup heavy cream

• 8oz ricotta cheese

• 2 eggs, beaten

• Salt and pepper

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 400F. Fry the garlic in oil in a large saucepan. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Beat the eggs, cream and cheese together in a mixing bowl until combined. Add the wilted spinach and season.

2. Transfer the spinach and cheese mixture to a buttered quiche dish and bake in the oven until just set. This should take around 20-25 minutes. Once cooked leave to cool for 2 minutes before very carefully slicing.
