I used to make quiches all the time but honestly it had been forever since I made one. I forgot how easy they are to make and how delicious. While Sterling was eating his piece he said "I wish you would make this every night, it is so good." I was shocked this kid doesn't even really like scrambled eggs but he loved the quiche and it was filled with green veggies- major win.
Quiches are awesome because you can really do any filling you want. This is a great way to use up some end of Summer squash and zucchini. Bacon and cheese just make everything taste better so of course I threw in lots of both!
Enjoy!

- 1 pie crust (in the refrigederator section)
- 2 small zucchini, sliced
- 2 small squash, sliced
- 1 shallot, diced
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 10-12 pieces bacon (I just use the Boars Head microwave kind)
- 4 oz gruyere cheese
- 4 oz mozzarella cheese
- 6 eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons whole wheat flour (regular all purpose is fine too)
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- salt and pepper
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet. Add in the shallot, squash and zucchini. Cook over medium heat until tender about 10-12 minutes. Add in the spinach at the end and cook until it wilts. Add in red pepper flakes and salt and pepper.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place pie shell in pie dish. Bake for 5 minutes and remove from heat.
Whisk together all 6 eggs. Add in milk, flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and cheese. Stir all together then add in the zucchini/spinach mixture. Mix well. Stir in crumbled bacon and then pour all into the pie shell.
Bake at 350 degrees 35-45 minutes until eggs have set and top is golden. About halfway through I covered mine with foil so the crust wouldn't burn.

I bought these high waisted workout leggings during the Anniversary sale and they quickly sold out. They are now back in stock in all sizes and colors. I am all about some high waisted work out pants because they suck you in and they are super flattering too. I have the olive green color but black is definitely my favorite too. They run TTS, I am wearing a small.
I also really like these ones with the cut-out leg detail.
I always gravitate towards neutral pants but whenever I see people wearing fun patterns I think it looks so cute. These 4 patterns in the high waisted style are all really fun!
