Spinach Quiche

Quiche is one of my favorite things to cook--I love to eat quiche!

This is a new recipe that I really liked. It is a little harder then a lot of other quiche recipes because it requires a pastry crust, but I think it was worth it. I really liked how it used cream cheese instead of a traditional chedder, and I loved the input of spinach--much better then broccoli. The end result was very creamy, moist, and so yummy.

I know it doesn't look that wonderful in this picture, but it really was beautiful. The lighting wasn't very good in my kitchen, and I discovered that yellow food doesn't look that good on a green countertop.
