Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
If using a pre-made pie crust, roll it into a 9-inch pie pan, carefully pressing it into the edges. Trim any excess dough from the edges. If using homemade dough, prepare and blind bake the crust according to your recipe instructions.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using) until thoroughly combined.
Break the Chavrie goat cheese into small pieces and scatter them evenly over the bottom of the prepared pie crust.
Evenly distribute the sautéed spinach over the goat cheese in the crust.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the spinach and cheese, ensuring the filling is evenly distributed.
Sprinkle the shredded parmesan cheese on top of the filling.
Place the quiche on a baking sheet to catch any spills and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your Chavrie Spinach Quiche warm or at room temperature!
