For a Serving Size of Two:
Ingredients:
- 3 whole eggs
- 100 ml milk
- 30 grams feta cheese
- 50 grams chopped spinach
- 50 grams diced bell peppers
- 30 grams finely chopped onions
- 30 grams sliced mushrooms
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme or oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Procedure:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the onions and cook until translucent. Add the bell peppers, mushrooms, and spinach, cooking until the spinach is wilted and vegetables are tender.
- Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Stir in the grated cheese, garlic powder, dried thyme or oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Add the cooked vegetables to the egg mixture and mix well. Pour the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish (about 20 cm or 8 inches in diameter). Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
- Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
