Simple Quiche with Sweet Potato Crust

Ingredients for the Crust:

• 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into thin rounds
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

  Ingredients for the Filling:

• 6 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk or a milk alternative
• 1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped
• 1/2 cup grated cheese (such as cheddar or feta)
• 1/2 cup diced ham or cooked bacon (optional)
• 1/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish and layer the sweet potato slices in an overlapping pattern across the bottom and up the sides of the dish to form a crust. Brush the sweet potato slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. Bake the sweet potato crust for about 20 minutes or until the edges are slightly crispy.
4. In the meantime, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Stir in the spinach, cheese, ham (if using), and diced bell pepper. Add salt and pepper to taste.
5. Once the sweet potato crust is pre-baked, pour the egg mixture into the crust.
6. Lower the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake the quiche for 30-40 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
7. Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
