Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium shallot, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 cups baby spinach or kale, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• 6 eggs
• 1 cup whole milk or half-and-half
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 3 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the chopped greens (spinach or kale) and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 6

Stir in the cooked greens, parsley, dill, and half of the crumbled goat cheese.

Step 7

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining goat cheese and Parmesan cheese (if using) over the top.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and lightly golden on top.

Step 9

Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
