Swiss Chard and Mushroom Quiche

Ingredients

Olive oil

2 tablespoons

Salt and pepper

to taste

Grated cheese (such as gruyere or swiss)

1 cup

Milk

1 cup

Eggs

4, large

Garlic

2 cloves, minced

Onion

1, finely chopped

Mushrooms

1 cup, sliced

Swiss chard

2 cups, chopped

Pie crust

1 (9-inch) crust

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until they soften and release their aromas - about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the sliced mushrooms and continue to cook until they brown and their moisture evaporates - approximately 8 minutes.
4. Add the chopped Swiss chard to the skillet and cook until it wilts. This should take about 5 minutes. Season the mixture with salt and pepper, adjusting to your preference.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add salt and pepper to this mixture as well.
6. Position the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Evenly spread the Swiss chard and mushroom mixture over the crust.
7. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables. Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly on top.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche sets and turns a beautiful golden brown color.
9. Allow the quiche to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy the symphony of flavors in every bite!
