Vegetarian Quiche with Mushrooms and Spinach

Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pie crust
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (bell mushrooms or any preferred variety)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream or milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (Gruyère or Cheddar)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are translucent.
  3. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they are tender and have released their moisture, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, approximately 2-3 minutes. If using, sprinkle in garlic powder for added flavor. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and cream (or milk) together until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Spread the sautéed vegetable mixture evenly over the bottom of the pie crust. Pour the egg and cream mixture over the vegetables, making sure it is evenly distributed.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top of the quiche.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is golden brown and set in the center.
  9. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
