I love the simplicity of dishes like quiche; especially when you use a great store bought dough. This is one of my favorite quiches, mainly because anything with spinach and goat cheese is fine by me! What’s YOUR favorite kind of quiche?

Jenny, would you suggest I follow the same recipe for a 11″ pie dish? Thanks!!
Yep! Shouldn’t make much of a difference! :)
Yummy! I made this for a brunch and it was a hit. I didn’t have goat cheese so I used feta. It was delicious but I hope to use goat next time to try that out, too.
Do you think I can make this the night before and then pop it in the oven in the morning?
Totally! You can even bake it the night before and warm it up in the oven the following day, if you have a time crunch issue!
What would I need to change on this to make it without crust? I LOVE quiche, but I don’t always have the foresight to make or buy dough
You can turn this into a frittata! Just pour the mixture into a nonstick pan and place it in a 350-375F until it’s cooked through. Good luck!
Wow, I have never made a quiche without par-baking the crust. I will have to try it one time. Lately I have been adding balsamic roasted onions. I will have to try the red peppers.
Me too, like the goat cheese and spinach combination and quiches are a big favorite at home. Shall definitely try this recipe.
Pretty much anything with goat cheese in it is right up my ally and this quiche looks way to good not to try!
