Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch shell pre-made pie crust
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 0.5 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
- 1 medium diced jalapeño
- 0.5 cup diced red bell pepper
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and set it aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced jalapeño, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, and whole milk until fully combined. Stir in the paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Spread the shredded sharp cheddar cheese evenly across the bottom of the pie crust. Top with the cooked bacon, sautéed vegetables, and crumbled feta cheese.
Pour the egg mixture over the filling ingredients, ensuring it spreads evenly. Sprinkle a little extra cheddar or paprika on top, if desired, for added color and flavor.
Place the quiche on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown. To test for doneness, insert a knife into the center—it should come out clean.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
