Crustless Cheese & Spinach Quiche.

I saw this one in our local newspaper food section earlier this week, and made it today as a brunch addition. It is ridiculously good, and very easy to prepare.

Crustless Cheese and Spinach Quiche

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup pesto
5 eggs, lightly beaten
Cooking spray

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Press the excess moisture from the spinach. Combine the spinach, 1½ cups of the mozzarella, cream, pesto and eggs in a bowl and mix well. Pour the spinach mixture into a 9-inch pie pan sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until set. Sprinkle with remaining half cup of cheese and bake another 2-3 minutes longer, or until the cheese melts.
