Greek Style Quiche Recipe [Sponsored]

Greek-Style Quiche (Prep. time 30 minutes.  Serves 6-8)

6 eggs

1 ½ C. milk

1 ½ C. spinach, rough chiffonade

1 C. crumbled feta cheese

1 clove garlic, diced

¼ tsp. ground nutmeg

¼ onion, thinly sliced

(optional ½ C. chopped kalamata olives)

salt, pepper

crust for one single-crust pie (You can use puff pastry sheets for a super-flakey crust.  Just form it into the pie plate, prick it with a fork and pre-bake it for about 5 minutes until it just starts to brown, pricking it again occasionally to keep it from rising.  Pre-baking will prevent the crust from getting mushy.)

Pre-heat oven to 375.  Over medium heat, sauté the onion until just starting to turn translucent.  Add garlic and spinach and cook until the spinach starts to wilt.  Allow to cool a little.  Beat together the milk, eggs, salt, pepper and ground nutmeg.  Stir in the feta cheese.  Put the spinach mixture (and optional olives) in the bottom of the pie crust and pour the egg and cheese mixture on top.  Place pie pan on a baking sheet to catch any spill-over.  Bake for about 20-25 minutes until the egg is firmly set through the entire quiche.  Allow to cool and set a few minutes after coming out of the oven.  Serve with a dollop of sour cream if you like.
