Spinach Quiche Recipe

So the truth is, I'm not much of a cook. I have a limited array of recipes but the ones I do have are usually a pretty big hit when I make them for other people and I thought I'd share one with you. This is one I got from my cousin at a baby shower for my sister-in-law/nephew (he and I are pictured below).

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup of Shredded cheddar
1 package of frozen spinach
3 eggs
1 cup of heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup of chopped, roasted peppers
1/2-1 cup of crumbled feta
1 pie crust (or make it from scratch but you're on your own there:)
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
  • Cook spinach to almost done and then very thoroughly squeeze out excess water
  • In a large mixing bowl, add 3 eggs, heavy whipping cream, salt & pepper to the spinach
  • Take the pie crust and mix the mozzarella and cheddar in the bottom
  • Pour the spinach mi over the cheese in the pie crust
  • Sprinkle feta and red peppers over the top
  • Cook 50 minutes @ 350 then let it set for 10 minutes
*If it looks soggy after 50 minutes, it probably just needs time to set. If it's still soggy, there was probably too much water left in the spinach (this happened to me the first time) so be sure to really squeeze as much excess water as you can!

Enjoy and let me know if you try it out!
