• 1/2 cup fresh baby spinach
• 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
• 4 eggs
• 1 2/3 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 tsp. salt

Directions:

Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy duty foil. Bake at 450 degrees F for 8 minutes. Remove foil, bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F.

In a large skillet, saute the onion, mushrooms, squash, and garlic in butter until tender. Add spinach, saute 1 minute longer. Spoon into crust and top with cheese.

In a bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, salt, rosemary, and pepper until blended. Pour over cheese. Cover edges of crust loosely with foil.

Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting.
