Spinach Feta Quiche

Servings: 8 Time: 1 hour (+1-2 hours if baking pie crust from scratch)

Nutrient Highlights:

• Protein & Tissue Repair: Eggs and feta cheese provide high-quality protein to support muscle maintenance, tissue repair, and satiety.

• Choline & Brain Health: Eggs are rich in choline, an essential nutrient that supports brain function, memory, and nervous system health.

• Calcium, Vitamin D & Bone Health: Feta cheese provides calcium, an essential mineral that supports strong bones, muscle function, and nerve signaling. Egg yolks are high in Vitamin D, which helps enhance the body’s absorption of calcium.
