Tomato, Spinach, and Dill Quiche with a Shredded Potato Crust

Tomato, Spinach, and Dill Quiche with a Shredded Potato Crust

 I’ve wanted to try my potato crust quiche using shredded potatoes instead of sliced potatoes for a while now, so I made this tomato, spinach, and dill quiche with a shredded potato crust quiche for dinner. The dill added a nice pop of fresh flavor and I liked the saltiness of the feta cheese. This potato-crusted quiche recipe was a healthy and flavorful dinner that my husband and I loved.

  1. I hope you feel better soon! This quiche looks amazing! So moist and delicious. I love serving them for brunches and I’m always looking for new ideas. I’ve never tried a potato crust…great idea. 🙂

  2. Made it this morning! Amazing!! This was my first time making quiche. I used fresh dill and wow, so delicious. I added mushrooms and green onions as well to the veggie mix. I also added about 1/3 cup wheat flour and a bit of milk to the potato peels for the crust. I will definitely be making this again!

    1. Kv,
