ingredients
- 1 unbaked 9-inch refrigerated pie crust
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
- 1 cup mushroom, sliced
- 1 cup red onion, minced
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

This recipe turned out great, I added some green peppers and a few more spices. It was enough to fill two pie crusts! I don't even like quiche but I liked this recipe!Reply
