SPINACH QUICHE WITH CHICKEN
Quiche works very well. Add seasonings of your family's choice for more variety. Use ham, bacon, or whatever protein. This quiche needs flavor boosters, so use your spice cabinet. Easily make this a Tex-Mex dish with diced green chiles and a touch of cumin. You could also add crumbled freshly cooked bacon to add more flavor. I served this with sliced avocado and tomatoes for a perfect light dinner.

CHICKEN QUICHE RECIPE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
- Roll the dough out on a well-floured work surface until it's approximately 12-inches in diameter. Transfer it to a 9-inch glass deep pie dish.
- Using your fingers, press it firmly into the bottom and sides of the pie plate. Then fold/crimp the overhanging dough. Prick the bottom and sides of the pie crust all over with the tines of a fork to prevent the crust from bubbling.
- Transfer the pie crust to a cookie sheet and your pre-heated oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until par-baked.
- Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl lightly beat the eggs with milk, add the remaining ingredients and pour into the par-baked pie crust.
- Place quiche on cookie sheet, cover the edges of the exposed crust with foil to prevent browning too much and bake on the middle oven rack until the eggs are set and a knife inserted in center comes out clean, for 50 to 60 minutes.
- Let cool before serving.
- Serve with a crisp green salad or maybe some fresh fruit on the side.

Tips:
- For a crispy quiche crust, use a combination of butter and oil when greasing the pan. The butter will add flavor, while the oil will help the crust to brown evenly.
- If you don't have a quiche pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie pan. Just be sure to trim the excess dough around the edges.
- To prevent the quiche from becoming too brown, cover it with aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
- Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to cut.
- Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature. It can also be chilled and served cold.
Conclusion:
This chicken, spinach, and mushroom quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken and vegetables. The quiche is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
