- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 5 oz fresh spinach (about 5 cups)
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup milk (whole, 2%, or half-and-half)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss work well)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions: - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with a little olive oil or non-stick spray.
- Sauté the onion and garlic: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute.
- Add the spinach: Gradually add the fresh spinach to the skillet, stirring frequently, until wilted. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Prepare the egg mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and red pepper flakes (if using).
- Combine and pour: Stir in the shredded cheese, Parmesan cheese, and the spinach mixture. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish.
- Bake: Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and slightly golden on top. You can test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
- Cool and serve: Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Tips: - You can add other vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or tomatoes for extra flavor.
- This quiche can be made ahead and reheated. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Serve with a side salad or fruit for a complete meal.
