Low Sodium Spinach Quiche

 1 tbsp olive oil
 8 oz mushrooms
 1 ½ cups white onion
 3 cloves garlic
 3 cups baby spinach
 6 large eggs
 ½ cup cup half & half
 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
 2 tbsp fresh parsley
 2 tsp black pepper
 7 oz low sodium cheese
1

Heat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9-inch pie dish by greasing it with oil or butter, then set aside.

2

In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil.

3

Once the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and sauté for 3 – 5 minutes until they have released some moisture and reduced a bit.

4

Add the onion and sauté for 3 minutes to soften slightly.

5

Add the garlic and spinach, mixing well. Sauté until the spinach has reduced completely, roughly 7 minutes.

6

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half & half, mustard, parsley, and pepper.

7

Add the cooked mushrooms and spinach mixture to the prepared pie dish and spread out evenly. Sprinkle the cheese over the top, then pour the egg mixture into the pan. Use a spoon to make sure everything is spread out evenly.

8

Bake the quiche for 35 minutes, then remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
