  • Sprinkle with chives and basil or other spices you like.
  • Stir to combine and remove from heat and let the feta melt while set aside.
  • Whisk together the five eggs and milk until frothy.
  • Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate if not already in one.
  • Set the pie plate on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan.
  • In the unbaked pie crust sprinkle 1/2 the cheddar cheese on the bottom.
  • Dump the skillet contents into the shell and then sprinkle the remaining cheddar.
  • Pour the egg/milk mixture over the top slowly, allowing the mixture to absorb through.
  • Add pepper to taste.
  • Let the quiche sit while you preheat the oven to 350 placing the rack in the center.
  • When oven is warmed, place the cookie sheet with quiche in and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until knife comes out clean.
