Spinach Quiche without crust

This week's guest, Toni Noel shares her Spinach Quiche recipe with us.  It's been a few years since I've made a quiche, but this one looks goods.  I'll need to make it soon.

Cook time: 30 minutes Prep time: 20 minutes
Total time: 50 minutes 6 servings

Ingredients:
1 10 ounce package frozen, chopped spinach, thawed and drained
3 cups (mostly Muenster) grated cheese
1 chopped onion
5 beaten eggs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Lightly spray a 9 inch pie pan to prevent sticking.
Place a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in oil and heat.
Add onions. Stir until onions soften. Do not brown.
Stir in spinach. Cook until moisture evaporates.
Turn off heat under skillet.
Beat eggs in large bowl.
Add cheese, salt, and pepper.
Blend in spinach mixture. Scrape into pie pan.
Bake about 30 minutes, until eggs set.
Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes.
Cut into 6 wedges and enjoy.

This sounds great! I love quiche, but the kids won't eat spinach. I think I'll make two and try substituting broccoli in one.

I love spinach and this sounds delicious! Question--no pie crust? Just pour into the greased pan?

This is a perfect recipe for our family because my youngest daughter is celiac and can't have gluten. She loves spinach quiche. Thanks for sharing!

Oh, my gosh, that sounds so good. I love spinach quiche but I've never made it. This one may be easy enough for me to try.

Toni, sorry I have not chimed in before. First, thanks so much for being my guest this week. I am really glad that you were here. Your quiche sounds great. I've made quiche in the past, but not for years. I like it, so don't know why I don't make it, but as others have said, this look both easy and yummy! I'm going to make it soon.
