This was awesome - I loved the dill and spinach combination! I used fresh dill from my garden. Since it was just two of us for dinner, I made 1/2 a quiche and used a small square baker - it did take the full 40 minutes to bake and it still didn't seem to be set on the top so I put it under the broiler for 3 minutes to brown the top, worked great! Since there is so much dill in my garden I'm sure I'll be making this one again! Made for 1-2-3 Hit Wonders.
