Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish with olive oil spray.
Press the thawed pie crust into the prepared pie dish, ensuring it evenly covers the bottom and sides. Trim any excess dough hanging off the edges.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, low-fat milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Layer the spinach, parsley, chives, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the pie crust.
Carefully pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients, ensuring it distributes evenly throughout the crust.
Place the quiche on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the center is set and a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool slightly for 10 minutes before slicing into 8 equal pieces.
Serve warm or at room temperature as a delicious, healthy meal option.
