Instructions
- *This recipe is adapted from KenyaRae.com, please head to her site for detailed recipe instructions. Be sure to tell her that I sent you :-)
- Begin the recipe by preheating the oven and adding the premade (regular-size) refrigerated pie crust to a 9.5-inch pie pan. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the egg mixture. Set aside.
- Layer the spinach, onion, sun dried tomatoes, and cheese in the pie crust.
- Slowly pour the egg mixture on top and gently press down using a rubber spatula to coat all of the ingredients in the egg mixture.
- Place into the oven to bake for about 35 to 40 minutes. Once the crust has lightly browned and the filling has set, carefully remove it from the oven. Allow the quiche to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes before cutting to serve. Enjoy!

Notes
- To make this recipe easy, use a regular not deep dish refrigerated pie crust or make a homemade crust yourself.
- Try grating the parmesan cheese and shredding the cheddar cheese yourself using a box grater for the best results. Trust me, it melts so much better than the bagged cheese.
- The original recipe used garlic powder, but I prefer to use fresh minced garlic, either is fine depending on your preference.
