Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 1 medium zucchini, diced
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 1 as needed cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Add the zucchini to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Finally, toss in the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from heat.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Stir the sautéed vegetables into the egg mixture, ensuring the vegetables are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Add the shredded cheddar and Parmesan cheeses to the mixture, stirring gently to combine.

Step 7

Pour the vegetable and egg mixture into the prepared pie dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. You can test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the quiche is ready.

Step 9

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
