Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (fresh, room temperature)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (chopped)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 small onion (finely chopped)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while you prep the filling.
  2. In a medium pan, sauté the finely chopped onion over medium heat for about 5 minutes until it’s softened and fragrant.
  3. In a large bowl, combine your room-temperature cottage cheese, sautéed onions, chopped spinach, eggs, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
  4. Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown on top.
  6. After baking, allow it to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
