If you’re spinning your wheels over what to cook for Mother’s Day brunch this year, consider a savory quiche.

Quiche is fairly easy to make yet elevated, versatile and filling. It’s also tasty. 

Below are two ideas courtesy of Grace Vallo, creator of food blog TastefullyGrace.com and Casandra Carrick, owner of LooksDelic.com.

UNIQUE COOKING AND KITCHEN SECRETS FROM MOMS IN HONOR OF MOTHER'S DAY

"Regular quiche is delicious, but cheesy quiche is perfection!" Vallo tells Fox News Digital.

"This quiche has extra cheese, lots of fresh spinach, and finely chopped shallots. It's easy to make ahead and reheat for Mother's Day so you can spend more time with mom the day-of," she continues, adding that you can serve this dish with a quick side salad, breakfast sausage, bacon or potatoes or other brunch favorites.

For this recipe to come out just right, Vallo notes to make sure your store-bought pie crust is savory, with little to no sugar added.

She also advises to drizzle your egg/cream mixture very slowly, in a spiral motion throughout your quiche. 

"If you pour too quickly, the mixture won’t have time to absorb into the quiche and it will spill over," she says.

Makes: 6 servings

Cook Time: 1 hour 30 minutes

2 ½ cups fresh spinach, packed

1 ¾ cup grated Emmentaler or Jarlsberg cheese, packed

Instructions: 

1. Bake the crust two-to-three minutes less than recommended on pie crust packaging (usually 10-15 minutes). Set aside.

2. In a medium pot, add olive oil, shallot, and then spinach. Over medium heat, sauté mixture for four-to-five minutes until spinach just wilts.

3. With a slotted spoon, transfer mixture to a cutting board lined with a triple layer of paper towels. Use paper towels to squeeze liquid out of the spinach mixture. Roughly chop mixture into bite-sized pieces. Let cool to room temperature. Pop in the fridge for faster cooling.

4. Mix grated cheeses together. Add spinach mixture to cheese mixture and toss. Add spinach/cheese mixture to pie crust in an even layer.

5. Whisk together heavy cream, eggs, and a pinch of salt. Drizzle your egg/cream mixture very slowly, in a spiral motion, throughout your quiche. If you pour too quickly, the mixture won’t have time to absorb into the quiche and it will spill over the edge.

6. Top quiche with a dusting of freshly ground nutmeg or a handful of snipped chives.

7. Bake quiche at 350 °F, uncovered for 30 minutes. Then loosely cover your quiche with foil and bake for an additional 45 minutes, or until quiche is deep golden brown and the egg mixture is set. The total baking time is 1 hour and 15 minutes. Let quiche rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

MOTHER'S DAY GIFT IDEA: ETERNAL ROSES AND KEEPSAKE BOUQUETS

For a second Mother’s Day quiche option, you arguably can’t go wrong with incorporating bacon in, well, anything. In this quiche recipe from Carrick listed below, the brunch staple shines. 

"Zucchini and bacon quiche is great for Mother’s Day because it’s a light dish with springtime flavors and colors," says Carrick. "It pairs perfectly with fruit or salad to round out the perfect brunch or lunch menu."

MOTHER'S DAY GIFTS THAT LAST LONGER THAN FLOWERS OR CHOCOLATE

As Carrick highlights, quiche can be prepared ahead of time so try to assemble your quiche early. "This allows for ample time to clean up the kitchen which mom will appreciate," she says. "Then, bake your quiche fresh by putting it in the oven one hour before meal time."

Yield: 2 servings

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

1 small zucchini

1 shallot

½ tsp dried thyme

6 eggs 3 whole, 3 just the whites

½ cup milk

2 pieces cooked bacon crumbled

¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp pepper

1 frozen deep dish pie crust

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 °F. Then heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in a small skillet.

2. Using a mandoline slicer, slice the zucchini and then the shallot into the hot pan. Sauté the vegetables until soft, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally so they don't brown too much.

3. Season the zucchini and shallot with dried thyme. Remove from heat and set aside.

4. In a mixing bowl combine eggs, milk, bacon, shredded mozzarella, salt and pepper.

5. Spread the zucchini mixture evenly across the bottom of the pie crust. Then pour over the egg mixture.

6. Bake in the oven for 1 hour or until the center of the quiche is set.

An unmarried Chinese woman on Tuesday began her final appeal of a hospital's denial of access to freeze her eggs five years ago in a landmark case of female reproductive rights in the country.

Teresa Xu's case has drawn broad coverage in China, including by some state media outlets, since she first brought her case to court in 2019. She lost her legal challenge last year at another Beijing court, which ruled the hospital did not violate the woman's rights in its decision.

The upcoming judgment will have strong implications for the lives of many unmarried women in China and the country's demographic changes, especially after the world's second-largest economy recorded its first population decline in decades.

In China, the law does not explicitly ban unmarried people from services like fertility treatments and simply states that a "husband and wife" can have up to three children. But hospitals and other institutions, in practice, implement the regulations in a way that requires people to present a marriage license.

Xu, who wanted to preserve her eggs so she could have the option to bear children later, is one of those facing difficulties in accessing fertility treatment.

In 2018, Xu, then 30 years old, had gone to a public hospital in Beijing to ask about freezing her eggs. But after an initial check-up, she was told she could not proceed without a marriage certificate.

According to the judgment she received last year, the hospital argued that egg freezing poses certain health risks. It said that egg-freezing services were only available to women who could not get pregnant in the natural way, and not for healthy patients.

But it also stated that delaying pregnancy could bring risks to the mother during pregnancy and "psychological and societal problems" if there is a large age gap between parents and their child.

After Tuesday's hearing, Xu told reporters that the denial constituted a violation of her right to bodily autonomy and she chose to fight on because this matter is very important to single women.

"I also have grown up a lot as the case evolves, I don't want to give up easily," she said.

It is unclear when the court will hand down the judgment, she said.
