1. Savory courgette pie

Let's start with one of the most loved savory pies: the one with courgettes . It is a delicious dish prepared with courgettes, one of the most versatile vegetables in the kitchen. But what are the best combinations ?

For a simple cake, in addition to the classic mixture of eggs and cheese, you can use courgettes either first cooked in a pan or grated raw. The combination with mint and parsley is excellent, but for cheeses you can try adding stracchino .

2. Savory spinach pie

The savory pie with spinach is a real marvel for lovers of this vegetable. To make it, it is best to first blanch the spinach, which can then also be sautéed in a pan with garlic, oil and chilli pepper.

Once cooked, make sure they lose most of the liquid absorbed during cooking (if you have only boiled them, squeeze them ) and then put them in the quiche dough.

A delicious variant is the ricotta and spinach savory pie, which as we know is an excellent combination. You can even put just one egg in the dough to make the taste even more authentic and bring out the notes of the cheese!

3. Savory pumpkin pie

We are faced with a delicious cake, which is prepared especially in the autumn season and which has one of the most versatile vegetables in the kitchen at its base: it is pumpkin cake .

Here there are many combinations. The sweet taste of pumpkin, in fact, can be perfectly combined with many different ingredients, starting with cheeses: taleggio, gorgonzola , or even simply grated pecorino will make this quiche fantastic.

But the best is yet to come: try adding some cold cuts or sausage , which you will first have to sauté in the pan to make it nice and crunchy!

4. Savory pie with artichokes

Here we are at the artichoke quiche , a refined and ideal cake if you want to serve a classy appetizer. To prepare it, the important thing is to clean the artichokes well, which must be deprived of external leaves and internal beard.

While cleaning them, remember to soak them in water and lemon, so as not to oxidize them and preserve their bright and inviting color .

At this point you can cook them with garlic, oil, salt, pepper and parsley, until they are soft. Finally create the dough and fill your cake: enjoy your meal!

5. Savory pie with potatoes

Potatoes are a real wild card in the kitchen, as they can be used to prepare many fantastic dishes, including delicious cakes.

If you want to make a savory potato pie , in this case you will need some allied ingredients, to create a delicious dough that will make you hungry even just thinking about it.

As always, we recommend cheeses and a meat-based ingredient: how about provola and sausage? Or gorgonzola and ham? In short, you can really try the ones you like best!

You can blanch the potatoes and then cut them into cubes or mash them and reduce them to a sort of puree, which you then mix with egg and everything else: have fun with this delicious quiche!

6. Salmon savory pie

For a refined and excellent dish for a classy dinner, salmon quiche is the one for you. In this case the main ingredient is fish, which you can choose from different types.

If you use already packaged smoked salmon, you can directly take it out of the package, cut it into pieces and put it inside the dough.

If, however, you choose a fresh fish fillet, you will first have to cook it in a pan and only once it is nice and cooked, break it into pieces and add it to the other ingredients. Try it too, this cake is wonderful !

7. Savory pie with asparagus

Asparagus is a wonderful vegetable, also ideal for this type of preparation. It is a refined vegetable with a predominant flavour, so you will not need many other ingredients to combine with it to bring out the flavour.

If you love this vegetable as much as we do, then don't miss the asparagus quiche , it's truly fabulous !

8. Savory pie with radicchio

We have arrived at one of the most interesting savory pies of the review: the radicchio savory pie . Here a world opens up, because radicchio is a vegetable with a truly particular taste and which lends itself to various delicious combinations.

We tell you, our kit for the perfect cake is radicchio, gorgonzola, parmesan and why not, some walnuts. The bitterness of red radicchio, in fact, goes perfectly with the creaminess and sweetness of gorgonzola, but in general it goes well with all creamy cheeses .

The other secret weapon could be speck, which has always been a great ally of radicchio: choose one in slices or strips , sauté it and add it to the ingredients of the dough!

9. Savory aubergine pie

Here we are at a truly delicious vegetarian cake. To prepare a savory pie for the aubergines you will first have to take care of purging and cooking them, and then… think about the combinations.

In this case we advise you against making the classic quiche with eggs, but to focus on fresher combinations. You can use only vegetables (maybe peppers, onions and cherry tomatoes in addition) and then season with grated cheese, or add mozzarella for a more stringy result than ever!

10. Savory pie with ham and cheese

We conclude with a classic quiche perfect for everyone, adults and children: the savory ham pie . In this case the recipe is really simple , you just have to choose which type of cheese to use, and then decide between cooked and raw ham.

The cooked version tends to be used, which has a delicate flavor and a soft consistency, but the raw version can also be a tasty idea, especially for those who love strong flavours.

With cheese, however, a world opens up: provola, scamorza , parmesan, pecorino, mozzarella , stracchino… choose the one that stimulates your appetite the most!
