For the best results, be sure to cool the quiche before cutting into slices. Substitute other grated cheeses like sharp Cheddar or mozzarella for the Le Gruyère, if you like.

Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Add pepper, onion, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown and caramelized, 10 to 12 minutes; transfer to a large bowl.
Return skillet to heat, add remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil and spinach and cook, tossing often, until completely wilted and liquid is evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes; transfer to bowl with onion and pepper and set aside to cool.
Add eggs, milk, 1/2 cup of the cheese, thyme and remaining salt and pepper to the bowl with onion mixture and stir to combine.
Transfer mixture to pie crust, top with remaining 1/4 cup cheese and bake until deep golden brown and cooked through, about 45 minutes.
Set aside to let cool until just warm then cut into slices and serve.
