Yogurt Spinach Quiche

Submitted by gruurly

"This recipe is crustless because my family prefers it that way, but you can easily add your own if you'd like. Simple and very tasty, the yogurt adds something special, and helps my little one who struggles with non fermented milk to digest easily. Amazingly there is no flour in this recipe, just make sure the spinach isn't runny still before adding it to the other ingredients. Adapted from The Vegetarian Mother's Cookbook."

Loved it! Felt so lo-cal but with additional seasonings, and just using chicken broth (no oil) to sauté the onions, it did not lack on flavor. Used 2 boxes of fz spinach, wrung out well. Also added 2 tbsp of Bisquick.
