Ingredients

• 1.25 cups whole-wheat flour
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons cold water
• 6 large eggs
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 0.5 cup red onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.25 cups goat cheese, crumbled
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the whole-wheat flour and a pinch of salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Add the cold water one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Press into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Step 4

On a floured surface, roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Press it into the dish and trim any excess dough. Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for 10 minutes, then set aside.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and garlic, cooking until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 4-5 minutes, then stir in the spinach until wilted. Remove from heat.

Step 6

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, thyme, and oregano.

Step 7

Spread the cooked vegetables evenly in the pre-baked crust. Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes and crumbled goat cheese on top.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, ensuring everything is evenly covered.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Healthy Gourmet Quiche!
