I stuffed all the leaves into a Blender (I really packed it full!) added about a cup of good extra virgin olive oil, a couple of cloves of garlic, a few tablespoons of vinegar and the juice of one lemon. Pushed the button and let it run! A bit of salt and pepper mixed in, and poured over the veggies. Delish!

The quiche was 10 eggs, a package of Feta cheese, a package of Mozzarella cheese, a handful of black olives, and two packages of spinach, wilted in a deep frying pan with a bit of olive oil, and mixed in with the egg mix. A little fresh rosemary and a large amount of fresh oregano for seasoning. A bit a butter back into the frying pan and poured everything in, set over a low flame covered for about 20-25 minutes... Salt and pepper after cooking, and it was a mini-feast!

10 eggs?!? For 2 people?!? I have trouble eating 2 whole eggs, and that's without anything extra on the side ...

I always thought quiche is a dish in which you use some kind of dough. An oven dish. What you descibred sounds more like an omelet. Or maybe a tortilla. But that pesto really sounds delicious
