I enjoy one dish meals because they are simple and easy to clean up after. Have also tasted spinach and really enjoy it in chicken recipes. This recipe comes from Betty Crocker Bisquick cookbooklet from October of 1998.

SERVES 6 -8 , 6 -8 slices (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In medium bowl combine baking mix, beans, and dressing. Using an ungreased 9x3 springform pan, spread combined mixture in bottom and 2 inches up the sides.
  2. 2
    Starting with chicken, layer the spinach and cheese over the crust. Mix eggs and milk, pour over cheese. Sprinkle almonds over top.
  3. 3
    Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow 10 minutes to stand and than loosen sides of torta from pan. Remove springform pan sides, slice, and serve.

I had this recipe in my cookbook for a while and was really looking forward to making it. I really struggled with how to rate this recipe & I guess I should start by saying that due to diet limitations, I did use fat free versions of the dressing, milk and cheese and egg substitute with good success, but was disappointed in the overall flavor of the dish and felt that it needed some sort of herb or spice to jazz it up. Next time I think I would either add some rosemary and garlic to the egg mixture, or maybe feta, garlic and dill to give it more flavor. On the plus side, this dish is visually beautiful and as other reviewers mentioned, the crust portion has the potential to be very versitile. Thank you Lauralie41 for sharing the recipe.

    Excellent savoury quiche with a great, different crust! Used homemade Bisquick and only 1 cup of milk. Added 1/2 ts of salt and a dash of pepper to the egg&milk mixture and would use a bit more the next time - I like salt. Thank you Lori!!

    I made this one night, then ate the leftovers cold for breakfast in the morning. Fantastic! I've also used the crust alone for quiches or other savory dishes.

    This was so incredibly good and very easy to make! I will definitely be making this again!! The crust had such a wonderful flavor. I cannot believe this only took minutes to throw together! Next time I will not leave it in as long and decrease the cook time to 35 or 40 minutes and I will add the nuts and cheese during the last 20 minutes. This recipe was outstanding!!! Thank you Lori!!!
