I love this recipe so much, I whip it up in my kitchen at least once per month. If you like egg dishes and especially quiche, you are going to LOVE this one.
With the mixture of feta cheese, crimini mushrooms, onions, and spinach, there is a special kick to this quiche that is quite unique.
Ingredients for Spinach, Mushroom and Feta Quiche
Saute Mushrooms and Onions in 3T olive oil.
Add 6 cups of spinach to mushrooms and onions.
Cook spinach until wilted. Amazing how fast it cooks down!
Pour spinach, mushroom, and onion mixture into pie crust.
Mix eggs, half and half, and pepper
After sprinkling feta cheese on top of veggies, pour liquid mixture on top of feta cheese.
Quiche just before going into the oven for 40-50 minutes at 375 degrees.
Spinach, feta, and mushroom quiche fresh from the oven. I started to cut a piece before taking my beautiful picture – oops. 
Just couldn’t wait to eat it.

I found this recipe in my “Food to Live By” Recipe book, by Myra Goodman. This book is the official recipe book of the Earthbound Organic Farms in Carmel Valley.
This is definitely a keeper. Hopefully you love it as much as we do!
Oh, man that just looks so good!
