Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the gluten-free pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, until they are browned and tender.
Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and sauté for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, which should take about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.
Spread the cooked mushroom and spinach mixture evenly over the prepared pie crust.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and grated parmesan cheeses over the vegetables.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the cheese and vegetables in the pie crust, ensuring everything is evenly covered.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
Allow the quiche to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
