Ingredients

  • 1 pastry sheet for an 8-inch pie crust
  • 6 slices of savory bacon, roughly chopped
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 1 bag of fresh spinach (10 ounces)
  • 1 courgette (zucchini), thinly sliced
  • 1 ½ cups of creamy milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking
  • ¼ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese

Step 1

To start, preheat your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Next, lovingly press your pie pastry into the welcoming embrace of an 8-inch pie dish.

Step 2

In a skillet shimmering over medium heat, dance with your bacon, stirring and sizzling for about 3 minutes. Then, invite the onion, spinach, and courgette to join the flavorful party. Cook and stir until the onion and courgette are tender, the spinach is gently wilted, and the bacon whispers its delicious secrets, about 5 to 10 minutes. Lovingly transfer this delightful bacon-courgette mixture into your awaiting pie pastry.

Step 3

In a bowl, create a symphony by beating together milk, eggs, a pinch of salt, and a sprinkle of pepper. Pour this velvety mixture into your pastry crust. As a final touch, sprinkle the top with mozzarella cheese, like a gentle snowfall.

Step 4

Place your creation in the preheated oven and let it bake until the cheese is kissed with a golden hue and the quiche bounces back with a gentle resilience when caressed, approximately 35 minutes. Enjoy this culinary masterpiece with your loved ones, savoring each bite filled with love and warmth.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep spinach and courgettes fresh by storing them in the crisper drawer of your fridge. Make sure they are unwashed and dry to prevent them from getting soggy.
  2. 2. To save time, consider prepping the vegetables in advance by washing, chopping, and storing them in airtight containers. This will make assembling the quiche much quicker and easier.
