Notes
Be sure to grease your pie dish well so that the quiche doesn't stick.
Prep in Advance
You can make this ahead the day before. Prepare everything and assemble it in your pie dish. Cover and store in the fridge.
Substitutions
Spinach
1 bunch of spinach = 10 oz, including stems and about 6.75 oz stems removed. 4 (packed) cups of just the leaves.
Frozen: 10 oz frozen = 1 bunch
Other Veggies: Use any others you'd like!
Cheese: You can substitute your favorite, but we prefer the combination of spinach and feta.
Kosher Salt: Use 1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon of table salt for the 1 teaspoon of kosher salt.
