Though traditionally made with a pastry shell, this quiche recipe calls for store-bought phyllo pastry for an incredibly crisp crunch. Paper-thin sheets are layered to create a frilly and golden crust that hugs the garlic-infused egg custard studded with briny olives and salty feta cheese. The addition of spinach takes this quiche into spanakopita territory and it will not disappoint. Serve with a green salad dressed with a light shallot vinaigrette. Ingredients 4 large eggs 1 cup whole milk 2 cloves garlic, grated on a Microplane 1 tsp. kosher salt 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, halved lengthwise olive oil, for brushing 10 frozen phyllo pastry sheets, thawed 1/2 10-oz. pkg. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained 2 oz. feta cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup) Directions Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk eggs, milk, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in olives. Place a 9-inch pie plate on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush pie plate with oil. Place 1 sheet of phyllo in pie plate and brush with oil. Top with another sheet of phyllo, perpendicular to the first, and brush with oil. Repeat with remaining phyllo, brushing layers with oil and setting them off-center. (Don’t worry if some tear or get crumpled.) Place spinach in phyllo-lined pie plate. Pour in egg mixture. Stir gently to combine and distribute spinach evenly in pie plate. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake until center is set and crust is golden, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
