Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 8 oz baby bella or cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups onion thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves chopped
  • 5 oz spinach roughly chopped
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup half and half
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme plus more for garnish
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 cup gruyere cheese freshly grated

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375° and grease a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray; set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet and over medium heat. Once hot, add the mushrooms and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. If needed, add an additional tablespoon of butter or oil. Then, add half the spinach and cook for 30 seconds, then add the remaining spinach and cook until wilted. Set aside.
  • Whisk eggs, milk, half and half, mustard, thyme, parsley, salt, pepper, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Add the mushroom spinach mixture to the bottom of your pie pan, then sprinkle with the cheese. Last, pour the egg mixture overtop.
  • Bake until the quiche is set and golden brown on the edges, 30-32 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with additional thyme and serve warm. Enjoy!
