Original recipe by Yellowfish

1 1/2 - 2 russet potatoes, sliced very thin
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 sweet yellow onion, diced
1 cup of button mushrooms, sliced
1 zucchini, diced
1 cup of fresh spinach, diced
1 tomato, diced
1/4 cup of feta cheese (I used reduced fat)
6-7 fresh basil leaves, chopped
7-8 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup of milk
Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Coat a pie dish with cooking spray. Layer thin slices of potato all over the edges and bottom of pan, making sure to overlap. Bake in the oven for 7-10 minutes. Remove from oven.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onions for 3-4 minutes before adding the mushrooms. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes before adding the zucchini and spinach; cook for another 1-2 minutes then remove from heat.

Sprinkle the diced tomato, basil and half of the feta cheese on top of the potatoes then add the cooked veggies. Beat the eggs with the milk and season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Pour the egg mixture on top of the veggies and top with the remaining feta cheese.

Place in the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center of the quiche comes out clean - don't overcook. Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy.
