Ingredients

• 1 pre-made or homemade, 9-inch Pie crust
• 4 cups Fresh spinach
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 4 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 cup Ricotta cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish or tart pan, pressing it gently into the corners. Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Drain any excess liquid.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Stir the shredded mozzarella, cheddar, Gruyère, and grated Parmesan into the egg mixture. Then add the ricotta, blending gently.

Step 6

Spread the sautéed spinach evenly over the base of the prepared pie crust.

Step 7

Pour the egg and cheese mixture over the spinach, spreading it evenly and ensuring all the ingredients are distributed throughout the crust.

Step 8

Place the quiche on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden-brown.

Step 9

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
