Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 medium (shredded) zucchini
- 1 cup (chopped) spinach
- 1 small (diced) onion
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional for garnish) parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or equivalent-sized baking dish with cooking spray or a little olive oil.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until it begins to soften.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant. Then, stir in the chopped spinach and shredded zucchini. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, just until the vegetables soften slightly. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Fold in the sautéed vegetables and shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula if needed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, then serve and enjoy warm, room temperature, or chilled!
