Spinach Tomato Quiche


Who doesn't love quiche?  Well okay there may be a few people out there that don't.   This is what I decided to make for dinner tonight.  

Spinach Tomato Quiche
1 tablespoon butter
1 onion, chopped
1 - 10 ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained
1 - 9 inch refrigerated pre-made pie crust (makes it quick this way)
1/2 cup monterey jack cheese, grated
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
12-14 grape tomatoes, sliced thin
5 eggs
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon dill weed
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  
Melt butter in skillet over medium heat, add onion and cook until soft.  Add spinach and stir until spinach is dry, about 3 minutes.  Cool slightly.  
Sprinkle both cheeses over bottom of pie crust.   Top with spinach mixture and layer the tomatoes over the spinach.  Beat eggs, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg and dill weed in a large bowl to blend.  Pour over spinach.  Bake until filling is set, about 50 minutes.   Cool slightly, cut into wedges and serve.
