Stonebridge Easy Spinach Quichffle
Serves 12
I call this a “quichffle” because it’s kind of a crustless quiche and kind of a souffle. I wanted something that I could make in my food processor and bake in a 9 x 13 pan. Do try to wash your spinach, spin dry, and wrap in a towel the night before (or at least a few hours before) because if the spinach is wet, the quichffle will take longer to bake or may be soggy. Plus, if the spinach is ready, everything else can be thrown together—a 10 minute prep and pop in the oven! This dish is good as is with a side salad of spicy greens or you can bake and then top with sauteed veggies or reheated frozen ratatouille you have left from last season or with roasted veggies left over from another meal.
