Ingredients
  

  • 1 (9-inch) store-bought pie crust
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion, finely diced
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups fresh spinach leaves, roughly chopped
  • 5 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion 4 minutes, add mushrooms and cook 5-7 minutes until browned.
  2. Add garlic, cook 30 seconds. Add spinach, cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt, remove from heat, and cool slightly.
  3. Whisk eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg until smooth.
  4. Place pie crust on a baking sheet. Sprinkle half the cheese, top with vegetables, pour custard over, and add remaining cheese. Bake 30-35 minutes until center jiggles slightly.
  5. Let rest 10 minutes, then slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Blind-baking the crust for 10 minutes before filling makes it extra crisp. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out all moisture. The quiche can be served warm or at room temperature.
