Ingredients
  

  • 1 deep dish, frozen pie crust, 9 inch
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup cheddar and mozzarella cheese ½ cup of each cheese
  • 8 ounces fresh spinach 1 bunch
  • 8 ounces mushroom, sliced
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup chopped onions
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Thaw the frozen pie crust for 15 to 20 minutes, while you prep the filling.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Heat a medium saute pan with about 1 tablespoon of oil on medium heat.
  • Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until cooked and the moisture is evaporated, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the butter and cook until it melts, then add the onions and garlic and saute until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the spinach, salt and pepper and cook until the spinach is wilted and water evaporates, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl add the eggs, milk and cheese and whisk it until thoroughly combined.
  • Place the pie crust on a baking sheet.
  • Spread the cooked filling evenly into the pie crust. Pour the egg custard mixture over the filling in the pie crust.
  • Carefully transfer the baking sheet with pie crust onto the middle rack of the oven. Bake for about 45 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the quiche set for at least 15 to 20 minutes before cutting into it

Notes

*Nutritional facts provided are only an estimate, accuracy is not guaranteed.
  • Place the pie crust on a baking sheet for an easier and less messier transfer to the oven.
  • Substitute your favorite easy melt cheeses in this quiche.  A variety of cheeses work like parmesan, gruyere, mozzarella, and swiss.
  • Keeps in fridge for 3-4 days covered.
  • To reheat, microwave sliced potions 45 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Make sure to let the quiche set before digging in, cutting into it too early will make the filling collapse and spread.
