Ingredients
- 1 piece Pie Crust
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- 2 cups Spinach
- 1 cup Mushrooms
- 1/2 cup Onion
- 1 tsp Garlic
- 1 cup Cheese
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Pepper

Instructions
- Preheat the Oven. Set your oven to 375 degrees. Let it get hot while you work.
- Prepare the Crust. Place the dough into your pie dish. Press it firmly against the sides. Trim any extra dough from the edges.
- Sauté the Vegetables. Melt butter in a large skillet. Add sliced mushrooms and chopped onions. Cook them until they are soft and brown.
- Wilt the Spinach. Toss the spinach into the hot skillet. Stir until the leaves are small and dark. Drain any extra water from the pan.
- Mix the Custard. Crack eggs into a large bowl. Pour in the heavy cream and spices. Whisk until the mixture is very smooth.
- Layer the Filling. Spread the cooked vegetables inside the crust. Sprinkle plenty of cheese over the top.
- Add the Liquid. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. Fill it near the top of the crust.
- Bake the Quiche. Put the dish in the middle rack. Bake for forty-five minutes until set.
- Cool and Serve. Let it sit for ten minutes. This helps the slices stay firm.
Notes
➜ Squeeze all water out of the cooked spinach.
➜ Pre-bake the crust for a crunchier bottom layer.
➜ Use full-fat cream for the best silky texture.
➜ Sauté mushrooms until they are very dark brown.
➜ Do not overmix the eggs to avoid bubbles.
➜ Cover edges with foil if they brown fast.
➜ Let the quiche rest before you start cutting.
