Spinich and Cheese Quiche

From eatbetteramerica.com (I merged the Healthified recipe with the original)

1 9-inch prepared crust
3 ounces Gruyere or Swiss cheese
10 eggs, beaten
1 cup chopped fresh spinach or 1 package (9 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well-drained
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 Preheat oven to 350ºF. Shred cheese; you should have 3/4 cup. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the cheese.

2 In a large bowl, beat together remaining cheese, eggs, spinach, milk, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture into pie shell.

3 Bake for 40 minutes. Sprinkle with the reserved 2 tablespoons cheese. If necessary to prevent overbrowning, cover edge of quiche with foil. Bake about 10 minutes more or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Let stand on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving.
