Reviews and Comments:
The recipe doesn't say when to add in the spinach mixture. Should it cool first?
Made this delicious recipe last night for dinner. We all loved it! It is the best way to make a child eat spinach.
Recipe fails to specific when to add the spinach to the shell. One would assume it was intended to say: Combine eggs, milk, salt, etc... Pour over assemblied quiche.
