Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1 9-inch pie crust pre-made or homemade
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 5 oz fresh spinach roughly chopped
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1.5 cups half and half
  • 1 cup grated cheese such as Gruyere or cheddar
  • 0.5 tsp salt or to taste
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 0.25 tsp nutmeg freshly grated

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add garlic to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  • Add the cooked spinach mixture and grated cheese to the egg mixture and combine well.
  • Pour the mixture into the pie crust, distributing the filling evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
  • Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For a variation, consider adding diced cooked bacon, mushrooms, or sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor.
