Ingredients

1 unbaked pie crust

1 cup chopped leek

1 cup evaporated fat-free milk

1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon dried dill

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

4 large eggs

1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained, and squeezed dry

1/4 cup (1 ounce) finely shredded Emmental or Gruyêre

Directions

Preheat oven to 375° F.

Arrange pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 7 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

To prepare the filling, place a medium nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add leek; sauté for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve.

In a bowl combine milk and next ingredients (milk through spinach). Add leek mixture, and stir well. Pour into prepared crust, and sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 375° for 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes.

I have made similar quiches before and this combo sounds really good. You might try (and I don't know whether you can get the kind we have in the States) using buttermilk instead of milk... gives a neat twang to it.
