Quiche de hojaldre a la carbonara

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

guanciale

🥗Healthier: pancetta

💰Cheaper: bacon

Bacon is more widely available and less expensive than guanciale.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated mozzarella

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Roll out the puff pastry and line a quiche dish with it, trimming any excess.

Prick the bottom of the pastry with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Cook the guanciale in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

Add diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, milk, and grated parmesan cheese until smooth.

Stir in cooked guanciale, onion, garlic, black pepper, and salt into the egg mixture.

Fold in chopped spinach and sliced mushrooms, mixing until evenly distributed.

Pour the filling into the prepared pastry shell, spreading it evenly.

Sprinkle additional cheese on top if desired.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
