Spinach + Feta Quiche
No brunch spread is complete without a quiche! This delicious savory quiche includes a one of my favorite combos: spinach + feta. It's the perfect balance to all the sweet dishes and treats I served at our blogger brunch and was definitely the dish I got the most compliments on! I used a frozen pie crust to make this recipe even quicker and easier, but if you prefer to make your own crust from scratch that's always an option. You can find the full list of ingredients and step by step instructions below!
