Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
  4. Stir in the sautéed spinach mixture and shredded cheese into the egg mixture until evenly distributed.
  5. Grease a pie dish or oven-safe skillet and pour the quiche mixture into it, spreading it out evenly.
Cooking
  1. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are slightly golden.
  2. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Customize your quiche by adding different greens or cheeses. Spices like cayenne pepper or fresh herbs can enhance the flavor. Avoid overmixing to keep the quiche fluffy. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
