Steps:
- For the crust: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate (not deep dish) with nonstick spray.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the quinoa, egg white, Parmesan and salt until well combined. Press the mixture into an even layer in the base and up the sides of the prepared pie plate.
- Bake the crust until toasty golden around the edges, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely.
- For the filling: In another medium bowl, toss the scallions and kale to combine, then place in an even layer inside the prepared crust. Arrange the tomatoes evenly over the surface.
- In the same bowl you tossed the scallions and kale in, whisk the eggs and milk to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the custard evenly over the veggies. If using, top with the Cheddar.
- Bake until the crust is deeply golden and the egg custard is set, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before slicing and serving or let cool completely and serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degree Fahrenheit and place a butter paper/parchement in cake pan and butter/spray the cake pan (original recipe called for pie dish, I didn't have pie dish so I used my 9 inch cake pan instead). I cut the parchment more than dimension of cake pan as I was worried about unfolding the quiche but it was very easy so its not required
- Wash and rinse the quinoa. In a sauce pan add quinoa and water and bring to boil on medium heat. Simmer and cook till its done; switch off and set aside
- In a separate pan add little olive oil and sauté the onions on medium heat till its done. Add Brown sugar and mix well, and cook for 30 seconds and switch off
- Set aside. Meanwhile, start to caramelize the onions. Heat the olive oil in a large saute on medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onions. Slowly cook until the onions are soft and browned. Remove the onions from the pan, and place them in a large mixing bowl
- Rinse the spinach well in water. Boil water with pinch of sugar and salt. Add the spinach to the boiling water. Cook and switch off the flame, after 3-5 mins drain and quickly pour cold water over the spinach. Allow the spinach to cool and squeeze out all extra liquid using hand/sieve/ clean dish towel (I used my hands as it wotk best). Add the spinach, cooked quinoa, cream cheese and cheddar to the mixing bowl and combine well
- In a separate small bowl whisk the eggs and beat well; add it to the quinoa-spinach mixture along with salt and pepper. Mix gently untill everything is combined
- Pour the mixture in the prepared cake pan. Bake for about 44- 46 minutes (mine got done after 44 minutes) until the top is golden and the quiche has started to pull away from the edge of the baking dish. Serve it hot/warm according to the preference
BROCCOLI, KALE & CHEDDAR QUICHE WITH SAVORY QUINOA CRUST
A cheesy quinoa crust makes a delicious, higher-protein swap for the traditional flour and butter quiche crust. Swap out the Tuscan kale in the filling for baby kale or spinach if you prefer a milder flavor.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Mist an 8-inch pie dish or quiche pan with cooking spray; set aside. (NOTE: Opt for a dish with a depth of about 1½ inches.) In a small saucepan, combine broth, quinoa and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer until quinoa is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; let cool. Whisk 1 egg; stir into cooled quinoa. Stir in ¼ cup cheese. Press mixture into bottom and side of prepared pie dish. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until crust is dry to the touch, about 25 minutes. Meanwhile, in a skillet with a tight-fitting lid, heat oil on medium-low. Add leek and sauté, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add broccoli, kale and ¼ cup water; cover and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and scrape into crust. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 2 eggs, egg whites, milk, mustard, salt and pepper. Pour into crust and sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup cheese. Bake on rimmed baking sheet until top is golden and a knife inserted in center comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Cool completely. Cut into 6 wedges; wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 3 to 4 days. To serve, transfer a slice to oven or toaster oven at 350°F until warm; can also be eaten cold.

QUINOA CRUST QUICHE
I began cooking with quinoa recently for a friend who was gluten-intolerant and have made quiches by my own recipes and experiments. I've made quiche and dumplings so far, and am looking to see what more it can do! The quinoa crust is surprisingly dense, so a thinner crust does not mean a weak quiche! I prefer to use quinoa flour to quinoa flakes for this crust for consistency of crust depth and increased flakiness.

- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C, gas mark 4). Rinse the quinoa well and set aside to drain. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion begins to brown, about 8 minutes. Add the Swiss chard and broccoli and sauté for 1 minute, then turn off the heat. Cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased 9- by 13-inch (23- by 33-cm) casserole dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the Cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the vegetable mixture. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, thyme, salt, pepper, and rinsed quinoa and whisk until thoroughly combined. Pour immediately over the cheese-topped vegetable mixture. Bake the casserole in the oven until cooked through and the top is just starting to brown, about 40 minutes. Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the Parmesan over the top. Return to the oven and bake until the Parmesan is melted and just starting to brown, about 5 more minutes. Let the casserole sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve with a mixed lettuce or spinach salad.
- You can use kale instead of Swiss chard if you wish. Swiss chard eaten raw makes a nice base for smoothies, too, as it tends to be sweeter than kale.
