One of my favorite ways to repurpose leftovers is to make quiche. In this case, I had some leftover chicken, half a package of baby spinach, and half a package of mozzarella cheese. The results? A delicious dinner with leftovers for lunch the following day.

"Soup"er Easy Quiche
This easy, foolproof quiche starts with a can of cream soup, any flavor you want, and can be made with any meats, vegetables, and cheese that you have on hand.
Ingredients
- 1 can condensed cream soup (I used cream of mushroom)
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 c. light cream or milk
- 1 c. shredded cheese of choice (I used Mozzarella)
- 1/2-1 c. meat of choice (I used 1 c. leftover chicken breast)
- 1/2-1 c. cooked vegetables of choice (I used baby spinach and left it fresh)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- pinch of nutmeg
- 1 prepared pie crust
Instructions
- Line a pie pan with the crust.
- Sprinkle the cheese over the pie crust. Layer the meat and vegetables over the cheese.
- Whisk together the eggs, cream soup, and cream or milk. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Pour over the ingredients in the pie shell.
- Bake in a preheated 350* oven for about an hour, until the center is set. Let rest 10 minutes before cutting and serving.

I'd have never thought to use a "cream of" soup in quiche, Wendy, but I can see why it works! So clever. I can't wait to try this!
ReplyDeleteThose back of that box or can recipes are normally keepers.
DeleteI've never tried using "cream of... " in quiche! How perfect, and who doesn't have a can or three in the pantry! I love quiche and don't make it nearly often enough. Thanks for the inspo!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Karen. Enjoy.
DeleteSo easy! I am the only quiche person, but I bet this would freeze with that soup in there.
ReplyDeleteYes, or you could always make mini quiches, freeze them, and then pop them out of the freezer for a quick warm-up.
DeleteI've got to try out this quiche recipe with cream soup, what a wonderful idea.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mayuri.
DeleteSuper creamy and delicious quiche with leftovers!
ReplyDeleteYes, nobody will even realize they are eating leftovers.
DeleteOh man! Cream of Mushroom soup in a quiche!? Genius! I love that you used what you had on hand. I have been doing that more and more lately. This one goes in the keeper file.
ReplyDeleteIt's been in mine for over 50 years.
