Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Zucchini, diced
- 1 cup Bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 0.5 cup Mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Optional herbs (parsley, thyme, or basil)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish lightly with olive oil or cooking spray.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced zucchini, bell pepper, chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, and a pinch of salt. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and optional herbs until well combined.
Gently fold the sautéed vegetables and shredded cheddar cheese into the egg mixture.
Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared pie dish and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and the top is lightly golden. To check doneness, insert a toothpick or knife into the center—it should come out clean.
Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
