Mini Spinach, Cheddar, and Red Pepper Quiche

by Laura

I’m sharing a quick and simple mini spinach, cheddar, and red pepper quiche recipe over at SheKows. It works as an appetizer or as part of a brunch and is very festive looking. Be sure to pop on over to there for the full recipe!

It’s the holiday season! I have a great recipe to share with you to enjoy during this wonderful time of year — mini quiches. They’re perfect to use as an appetizer at a party or even as part of a Christmas brunch. Even better? My kids loved these!

The recipe is easy to put together. It also looks festive with the colors you get from the spinach and roasted red pepper. Those ingredients are added with egg and cheese. Then it’s placed inside a puff pastry crust to make little mini morsels of goodness! I used Cache Valley Cheese Mild Cheddar Finely Shredded Cheese in these mini quiches.

I am proud to be born and raised in Utah. So, I love being able to support local brands when I can. It makes it so easy when Utah has such amazing goodness like Cache Valley Cheese. Although I used shredded mild cheddar in this recipe, Cache Valley has tons of other options. They include swiss, gouda and mozzarella, so play around with your favorites.

Regardless of what cheese you go with, these quiches are perfect for entertaining. They can be made ahead of time and served warm, at room temperature or even cold. I personally like them warm.

This doesn’t really have anything to do with this particular post, but I just wanted to thank you for making our Thanksgiving so great! I can’t remember which post you had where you said that you don’t mess with brining a turkey or use tons of herbs or whatever…you just salt and pepper it up and it turns out great. IT DID!! And it made the best gravy we’d ever had! I was so stressed about how to prepare it and honestly, coming from a food blogger that salt and pepper was just fine (and even preferred) was just such a relief. I don’t know why I didn’t know you could do that, but I’m so, so glad you said so! Thank you! 🙂
