Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Unroll the pie crust and press it into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish. Trim the edges and prick the bottom of the crust with a fork.

  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the leek and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

  4. Add the asparagus, sugar snap peas, frozen peas, and spinach to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender and any excess moisture has evaporated, about 5 minutes.

  5. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the vegetable mixture and Gruyere cheese.

  6. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pie crust.

  7. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.

  8. Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
