Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pie crust (9-inch)

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup ricotta cheese

3 large eggs

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (optional)

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Spinach: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

      Mix the Ricotta Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, heavy cream, eggs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth.

        Combine Ingredients: Stir in the sautéed spinach and add the sun-dried tomatoes if using. Mix until evenly incorporated.

          Fill the Pie Crust: Place your pre-made pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the ricotta-spinach filling into the crust, spreading it evenly.

            Bake the Quiche: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden.

              Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before slicing.

                Enjoy: Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy your delicious Ricotta Spinach Quiche!
