Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 1 cups grated cheddar cheese
• 1 small zucchini
• 0.5 cups mushrooms
• 1 cups baby spinach
• 1 clove garlic
• 0.5 medium onion
• 1 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons mixed dried herbs (e.g., thyme, oregano)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with cooking spray or a thin coating of olive oil.

Step 2

Thinly slice the zucchini and mushrooms. Finely chop the onion and garlic.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add the zucchini, mushrooms, and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are soft and any released liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the baby spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and mixed dried herbs until well combined.

Step 7

Spread the sautéed vegetables evenly over the bottom of the pie dish. Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the vegetables.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables and cheese, ensuring everything is submerged.

Step 9

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and golden brown on top.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
