Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, thinly sliced and quartered
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained well
8 eggs
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
2 tablespoons grated Pecorino Romano cheese
1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bring the pie crust to room temperature.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; add the onion and cook until onion becomes transparent, about 5 minutes. Combine the spinach with the onion, cover the skillet; turn off the heat, and set aside.
  • Unroll the crust and press to fit into a 9 inch pie plate. Trim the edges.
  • Beat the eggs in a large bowl until light colored and frothy. Add the garlic, thyme, basil, cheeses, and spinach mixture, and stir until well blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the spinach mixture into the prepared pie crust.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the top is golden brown, and an inserted tooth pick comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of quiche, but this one was surprisingly good. The crust was flaky and the filling was light and fluffy.

This quiche is a great way to get my kids to eat their spinach. They love the cheesy, creamy filling and don't even notice the spinach.

I love this quiche! It's so versatile and can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I often make it ahead of time and reheat it when I'm ready to eat.

This quiche was a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This quiche was delicious! The spinach was perfectly wilted and the cheese was melted and gooey. I added some crumbled bacon to the filling for extra flavor and it was a hit with my family.
