How to.
With your clean swiss chard or spinach leaves add them at the bottom of you pie or quiche dish. Add the sautéed mushrooms.
Add Feta or as I did mozzarella cheese as we don’t get feta where I live. It came out delicious. Use parmesan or cottage cheese, all should work well.
Cheese of choice grated and sprinkled on the top. I used mozzarella and you may use cheddar for more color. Also add some parmesan for that extra tang of savoryness.
Wisk the egg and milk custard mix with spices and pour over the cheese and mushrooms.
Sprinkle the cheese with dried parsley or dried basil. Bake in the oven and cool on a cooling rack once baked. Serve warm.
