Learning as I go

In the last 5 years I have really taken to cooking. I didn't do much at first, some baking mostly. I have discovered it is a new passion of mine and felt that this would be a great way to share the many recipes that have come my way along with some originals of my own. In the last couple weeks we have started receiving CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) - local grown fruit and vegetables and boy have I had fun figuring out what all I can do with it. Ive been making and cooking things I never imagined I would. So if you have found a passion in cooking like I have you have come to the right place. I hope you enjoy!

Paleo Quiche

 

Being on the Paleo diet I have had to experiment with different things for breakfast; this has become one of my favorites. I like to slice it into 8 pieces and I have one slice with an apple every morning. The nice thing I like is that you can have variety with this and change it up every week with different ingredients.

Basic paleo spinach quiche recipe

Ingredients
  • 5-6 large eggs;
  • 1 ½ cups fresh spinach, chopped;
  • ½ medium onion, chopped;
  • 1 clove garlic, minced;
  • ½ cup coconut/almond milk;
  • ½ tsp baking powder;
  • 1/2 cup diced/sliced assorted bell peppers;
  • You can also add some meat like various diced sausages
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and coconut/almond milk together. Make sure you mix things up really well. As you continue to whisk, start adding in all the other ingredients.
  3. Now you are left with greasing a 9” pie dish and pouring everything in. Bake the quiche for about 30 minutes, or until cooked through in the center. I also like when the edges get golden brown and have a little crunch to them.
  4. If you are opened to consuming some dairy, it is quite popular to add some cheese into the quiche.

Love and Enjoy!
