This chicken quiche recipe is very easy and fully packed with spinach and chicken but any other combination of vegetables would still give a great flavor. Time to clean out your fridge from the leftovers!
I also enjoy making Spinach Swiss Quiche as well as the Italian Crustless Sausage Quiche.
Instead of using thick cream which is normally amongst the quiche ingredients, it can be exchanged for milk which is still amazing and makes the quiche lighter with limited fat.
I have previously shared my favorite Spinach and Feta Quiche recipe; However, if you enjoy meat variation in your quiches, then you’ll surely relish today's quiche which can be served for brunch, lunch or dinner with a grilled salad in parallel. This chicken quiche is so affordable to make that you can use the chicken or turkey leftovers.
