Little Spinach & Roasted Red Pepper Quiche

Seeded shortcrust pastry stuffed with spinach, sautéed onions, feta & mature cheddar in a creamy free range egg filling topped with roasted red peppers.

What we suggest...

Our Little Quiches are 'made for summer'. They make perfect picnic food but we love warming them in the oven or even wrapping them in some tin foil and popping them on the bbq for a few minutes. Make this quick simple summer salad and you have a stunning meal literally ready in minutes!

Lots of Peas with fresh basil pesto and toasted pine nuts

  • Two generous handfuls of each of sugar snap peas, mangetout peas and shelled garden peas
  • A generous handful rocket leaves
  • 3 tbsp good quality olive oil
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 3 tbsp good quality fresh basil pesto (we like Stark Naked)
  • Freshly ground black pepper and a little rock salt

To decorate

  • Shavings of parmesan cheese
  • A handful of toasted pine nuts
  1. Drain the peas and dunk in cold water. Drain again.
  2. Place the peas in a shallow salad bowl with the rocket leaves.
  3. Mix all the remaining ingredients together and pour over the peas and rocket. Toss.
  4. Top with shavings of parmesan and toasted pinenuts.

Love you spinach and ricotta and pepper pie and buy it whenever I see it in Morrison’s. Hope to see others. Keep up the good work.

I’ve just had my first experience of Higgidy – Little Spinach, Feta and Tomato Quiche. Great pastry, filling packed with flavour, no scrimping on ingredients and eye-catching packaging. Thank you!

My 2-y-o son ADORES this quiche. Whenever we pass the fridge section in Sainsburys he chants “Higgidy! Higgidy! Higgidy” till I lift him up to choose something and he ALWAYS chooses the spinach and red pepper one. Just as well I love it too. :)
