1

Prep the Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients for the quiche. You'll need: 1 pre-made pie crust, 1 cup of fresh spinach, 1 cup of sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup of shredded Gruyere cheese, 4 eggs, 1 cup of heavy cream, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of black pepper.

2

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pie crust and press it into a greased 9-inch pie dish. Use a fork to prick the bottom of the crust. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans to prevent it from puffing up during baking. Bake the crust for 12-15 minutes, or until it's lightly golden. Remove the pie weights and let the crust cool while you prepare the filling.

3

Saute the Spinach and Mushrooms

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they are lightly browned and tender. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set them aside. In the same skillet, add the spinach and cook until wilted. Remove the spinach from the skillet and let it cool. Once cooled, roughly chop the spinach.

4

Prepare the Filling

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the chopped spinach, cooked mushrooms, and shredded Gruyere cheese. Mix well to combine.

5

Bake the Quiche

Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust. Smooth out the top with a spatula. Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

6

Serve and Enjoy

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve it warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors!
