Prosciutto & Spring Greens Crustless Quiche

A farmers market take on the classic "ham and cheese" quiche.

  • 5 Duck Eggs
  • 1 C Spring Mix (roughly chopped)
  • 1 C Scallions (thinly sliced)
  • 1 clove Garlic (minced)
  • 1 C Prosciutto (chopped)
  • ½ C Milk
  • 2 C Gruyere (grated)
  • ½ C Romano Cheese (grated)
  • 1 T Butter
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°

  2. In a large saucepan on medium heat, melt butter and sauté scallions and garlic for 5 minutes, until aromatic and softened
  3. Add spring mix and prosciutto to saucepan, and cook for additional 3 minutes
  4. Beat together eggs, milk, and cheese in a mixing bowl
  5. Mix together vegetables and egg mixture
  6. Pour into oiled pie pan
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, test for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center

 

This quiche is a great make-ahead breakfast, as well as being a nice way to use up any extra salad greens at the end of the week.  

We get our milk from a local farm, Crescent Ridge Dairy. If you’re in the greater Boston area, I definitely recommend checking them out for that old-style “milkman” experience!

Spring Greens Flatbread

A quick tasty dinner option using spring mix as the main feature!

  • 1 pre-made pizza crust
  • 3 C spring mix salad greens
  • 1 scallion (finely chopped)
  • ¾ C romano cheese (grated)
  • 3 T olive oil
  • flour or cornmeal (for work surface)
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°

  2. In a frying pan over medium heat, add 1T olive oil, scallions, and spring mix

  3. Stirring occasionally, heat for about 5 minutes to wilt greens

  4. Add flour or cornmeal to your work surface to prevent dough from sticking

  5. Roll out dough to approximately ¼" thickness — imperfection is fine!

  6. Spread remaining olive oil over crust, and add wilted greens + scallion mix and the romano cheese

  7. Bake, ideally on a pizza stone, for 11-12 minutes

  8. Serve immediately for best taste

 

As a note, when we took these photos, we only used 2C greens — we upped the greens to 3C in the recipe since it wasn’t enough!

 

If you’d prefer not to use pre-made dough, a great easy one to make at home is King Arthur’s!
