Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare pie crust and set aside. In heavy skillet, melt butter and add onion. Cook and stir for 4-5 minutes until onion is tender. Add flour; cook and stir for 3-4 minutes until bubbly. Then add half and half; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
In large bowl, combine sour cream, salt, pepper, eggs, and nutmeg and beat well to combine. Stir in onion mixture. Make sure spinach is very well drained (press it between layers of paper towels) and fold into mixture. Add havarti and colby cheeses.

Pour into pie crust and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake the spinach quiche at 350 degrees F for 40-50 minutes until filling is puffy and set.
