Green Pesto Quiche
Ingredients
5 large eggs
1 scoops (Blue Label) Collagen Peptides
3/4 cup milk of choice
1/4 c Plain Greek Yogurt 2%
1/2 grated Parmesan Cheese
2 c rough chopped fresh spinach
1 c broccoli - chopped and steamed
2 tsp Italian Rustico - to taste
grated parmesan cheese
FOR PESTO
1/4 c basil
2 tsp Italian Rustico Seasoning
1/2 c fine chopped fresh spinach
2 Tbsp grated Parmesan
Prepare the Crust:
Preheat your oven as directed on the pie crust package.
Prick the bottom of each crust with a fork to prevent air bubbles.
Bake according to package instructions, then remove from oven and let cool completely.
Make the Pesto:
In a small blender or bullet, combine fresh basil, chopped spinach, Italian Rustico seasoning, and 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan.
Blend until smooth, adding a small amount of water if needed to reach a smooth consistency. Set aside.
Prepare the Filling:
In a small bowl, whisk together milk and collagen until no lumps remain.
Add yogurt and stir until smooth.
In a larger bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the milk mixture and prepared pesto. Stir until
fully combined.
Assemble the Pies:
Divide the filling evenly between the two pre-baked, cooled pie crusts.
Top each pie with 1 cup of spinach and steamed broccoli.
Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese and SPG seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic).
Bake:
Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.
Cool & Serve:
Let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
