Crustless Quiche

Crustless quiche or egg casserole?  Regardless of the name, this fluffy egg dish with a mild green chili and spinach filling makes a delicious breakfast or brunch, or in this case a great weeknight meal. 

Since most mornings we are way too busy to fix a "fancy" meal, serving breakfast for dinner is something our family has always enjoyed.  Eggs are a great comfort food and they are also an inexpensive way to feed a family.  Plus with this dish, you'll even have leftovers for a quick breakfast.

12 Eggs
1/2 cup  Flour
1 1/4 tsp  Baking Powder
1/4 cup  Butter
4 oz can  Diced Green Chilies
1 pkg  Frozen Spinach, defrosted and water squeezed out
1 cup  Large Curd Cottage Cheese
2 1/2 cups  Grated Cheddar Cheese

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Melt butter in a glass 13 x 9 inch baking dish and set aside.

In a large bowl beat the eggs until blended, then add all of the remaining ingredients and stir until combined.  Pour the mixture into the baking dish and bake for 25 - 35 minutes or until golden on top and the center is set.

Serve with salsa, sour cream or hot sauce, a side of roasted potatoes and your favorite sausage or bacon.  Makes 8 servings.  Enjoy!!
