Ingredients

• 1 store-bought or homemade Pie crust
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 6 cups Fresh spinach
• 0.33 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, julienned
• 0.75 cup Basil feta cheese, crumbled
• 5 eggs Large eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, crimp the edges if desired, and prick the bottom lightly with a fork. Blind bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 5

Spread the sautéed spinach evenly over the bottom of the pre-baked crust. Distribute the sun-dried tomatoes and basil feta cheese evenly over the spinach.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cheese in the crust, ensuring it spreads evenly. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top.

Step 7

Place the quiche in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is just set and the top is lightly golden. You can insert a knife in the center; it should come out clean.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let the quiche cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature.
