**Jewish Quiche**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 store-bought or homemade pie crust
– 1 cup diced onions
– 1 cup sliced mushrooms
– 1 cup chopped spinach
– 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
– 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
– 5 large eggs
– 1 cup milk
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
– Optional: 1/2 cup cooked and chopped kosher salami
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. If using a store-bought pie crust, place it in a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges. If using homemade pie crust, roll out the dough and place it in the pie dish, crimping the edges.
3. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onions until they are translucent, about 5 minutes.
4. Add the sliced mushrooms, chopped spinach, and diced bell peppers to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. If using kosher salami, add it to the skillet at this point and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, chopped dill, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
6. Spread the sautéed vegetables evenly over the bottom of the pie crust in the dish. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the vegetables.
7. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
8. Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
9. Remove the Jewish Quiche from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
