Steps:
- Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a deep 9-inch pie dish with nonstick spray.
- Prepare any mix-ins (see recipe notes for a broccoli bacon version and the blog post above for more suggestions).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half-and-half, salt, pepper, mustard, and nutmeg.
- Scatter the mix-ins evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
- Sprinkle the cheese on top.
- Carefully pour the egg mixture into the dish. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the chives over the top.
- Bake the quiche on the baking sheet until the center is set, about 35 minutes. It should look puffed and golden at the edges, and when a thin, sharp knife is inserted in the center, the center should be cooked through without visible liquid. Let cool a few minutes. Cut into big wedges. Enjoy warm.

Steps:
- Parbake the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and place it on a well-floured surface. Working from the center, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle, then transfer it to an ungreased 9″ pie dish. With a fork, pierce rows of holes in the bottom and sides of the dough, about 1 inch apart. Bake until the crust is lightly golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Prepare the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the leeks and sauté for 5 minutes, until tender. Add the spinach and sauté for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, milk, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Spoon the spinach and leek mixture into the bottom of the crust, then sprinkle the feta over the top.
- Gently pour in the egg mixture.
- Bake the quiche for 45 to 55 minutes, until eggs are set in the center and puffed slightly and the crust is golden brown. Let the quiche cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

YOGURT SPINACH QUICHE
This recipe is crustless because my family prefers it that way, but you can easily add your own if you'd like. Simple and very tasty, the yogurt adds something special, and helps my little one who struggles with non fermented milk to digest easily. Amazingly there is no flour in this recipe, just make sure the spinach isn't runny still before adding it to the other ingredients. Adapted from The Vegetarian Mother's Cookbook.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Warm oil in pan and cook onions for 5-10 minutes until translucent.
- Add the spinach, cover, and cook another 3 minutes until the spinach is wilted. Remove the lid and let the water evaporate a few minutes; if you used frozen spinach you may need to drain the water as well.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, beat the eggs, yogurt, salt, nutmeg, paprika, and Spike together.
- Fold liquid mixture gently into spinach mixture, then add cheese and mix well.
- Pour into an 8 or 9 inch pie plate, and bake 40 minutes, or until center is set.
- Let the quiche sit to rest on the counter for 10 minutes before serving.
