Ingredients

• 1 piece Pre-made pie crust
• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 1 cup Diced ham
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Milk
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Roll out the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently into the bottom and sides. Trim any excess dough hanging off the edges.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add fresh spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the spinach from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Once cooled, squeeze out excess water and chop coarsely.

Step 4

Scatter the chopped spinach evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust. Add the diced ham on top of the spinach, spreading it evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese over the ham and spinach layers.

Step 6

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using) until smooth and well combined.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture over the cheese, ham, and spinach in the pie crust, ensuring it fills the crust evenly.

Step 8

Place the quiche on a baking sheet to catch any spills, then transfer it to the preheated oven.

Step 9

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. You can insert a knife or toothpick into the center — if it comes out clean, the quiche is done.

Step 10

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 11

Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Enjoy!
