Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the zucchini to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Finally, toss in the baby spinach and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Stir the sautéed vegetables into the egg mixture, ensuring the vegetables are evenly distributed.
Add the shredded cheddar and Parmesan cheeses to the mixture, stirring gently to combine.
Pour the vegetable and egg mixture into the prepared pie dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. You can test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the quiche is ready.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
