It has been a hard winter. I am very excited that things have started to warm up and that spring veggies have started to come in. If you know where to look, you can already find beautiful spring peas, asparagus, baby spinach, and green onions. What better than some farm fresh eggs to let this beautiful produce stand out. With a little help from Kraft Fresh Take Italian Parmesan, I made a lovely Crustless Green Quiche for spring.
First, I headed to Walmart to get my Fresh Take. Hanging there with the packaged, shredded cheese is my monster shortcut. Instead of purchasing a huge package of cheese and making fresh breadcrumbs, I can just grab this. I’m using Italian Parmesan, but be on the lookout for Cheddar Jack w/ Bacon or Southwest 3 Cheese. The suggested use is to coat chicken, pork, or fish, but I have other plans!
I coat my pie plate with butter, drop in the seasoned breadcrumbs, and shake it all around until the plate is completely coated.
Next, I turn my attention to the beautiful spring veggies. I chop them up into bite-sized pieces and mix them with the egg, milk, and three-quarters of the cheese from the Fresh Take package.
I pour the egg and veggie mixture right into the coated pie plate and top with more of the Fresh Take cheese.
After baking for 35-40 minutes in a 350-degree oven, here’s what you get. Beautiful, right? It releases easily from the plate, has a nice, light crunch from the bread crumbs, and the egg with the green veggies just tastes like spring. A slight bitterness from the spinach and asparagus, sweetness from the peas, and that great hit of onion. Just fabulous!
With a light salad, this makes a great dinner meal, but, personally, I love a leftover slice warmed up for breakfast. YUM!!
Crustless Green Quiche
Ingredients
1 tbsp butter
1 package Kraft Fresh Take Italian Parmesan, divided
8 eggs
1/2 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup packed baby spinach, chopped
1/2 cup peas, fresh or frozen
10-15 asparagus spears, prepared and chopped
3 green onion tops, chopped
Directions
Preheat oven to 350.
Smear pie plate with butter. Empty seasoned bread crumbs from Fresh Take package into pie plate. Shake and turn pie plate until completely coated with bread crumbs.
Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until thoroughly combined. Mix veggies and 3/4 of the cheese from the Fresh Take package into the eggs.
Pour egg mixture into prepared pie plate. Top with remaining cheese.
Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes or until knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to rest for 20-30 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
Wouldn’t this be a great way to start off your Easter Sunday? How would you use Kraft #FreshTake in a new and creative way?
Thanks! I need to make something for Hubs breakfast tomorrow. Wonder if I undercooked it slightly if it would reheat well in the morning.
No need to undercook it. Bake it until done and let it cool. Wrap it up and refrigerate it. In the morning, microwave a slice for like 30 seconds. It’ll heat up fine and not be rubbery.
I love breakfast. It’s our favorite meal time! I would have never thought to use that like a crust though. Looks delicious!
The Cheddar Jack & Bacon Kraft Fresh Take is my absolute favorite! I just adore making quiche …since I always have eggs from my hens on hand. Thanks for sharing the recipe… nice and easy!
I love the Cheddar Jack & Bacon too (really…anything with bacon), but that just felt like too much for the spring produce. Now, some caramelized onions with the Cheddar Jack & Bacon…YUM!!
It looks so fresh. I love breakfast any time of day and we love eggs and trying different ways of preparing them or adding things to them. I can’t wait to try this!
I love quiche AND asparagus. We live in a rural community, and on occasion I have lots of fresh eggs just sitting around. I never remember to make quiche. You reminded me!
I am going to be honest that I don’t LOVE quiche. I think its pretty and I do love all the ingredients you put in it. On a side note, your pictures are fantastic.
This looks absolutely delicious and perfect for the Easter holiday! I love how you included fresh Spring veggies- I even have some growing in my garden! #client
I’ve never made a quiche before you make it look so much simpliar than I’ve envisioned.
Quiche is so simple! It sounds fancy, but you can put anything you want into it. It’s a great way to clean out the produce drawer at the end of the week!
This looks so delicious! I love a dish that’s quick and easy.
I’ve made these fresh takes before and they are delicious. I love that you made a quiche with it, it looks really yummy!
We love quiche at our house too. I think I would use the Fresh Takes to make a great baked croutons to top fresh salads.
I love craft. I used it in so many dishes.
Looks delicious! I have never actually made a quiche before.
