List of Ingredients
Spinach and Swiss Quiche with Basil
1/4 cup butter
1 x onion peeled and chopped
1 x green bell pepper seeded and diced
2 x garlic cloves crushed
1 pkt chopped frozen spinach - (10 oz) thawed, and
well drained
6 x eggs
1 can Carnation evaporated milk - (12 oz)
8 oz 2% milk
2 tsp crushed dried basil

Recipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When foam subsides, saute onion, green bell pepper and garlic until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in spinach (well drained, excess moisture squeezed out) and saute 2 more minutes; set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs, evaporated milk, milk, basil, salt and pepper until well combined. Stir in spinach mixture, Swiss Cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and pine nuts.
Divide evenly between pie crusts. Sprinkle tops with remaining Parmesan. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until centers are just set.
