1 cup milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

2 tbsp finely chopped and slowly cooked onion

Directions

Crust:
To prepare the dough follow Pamela's Easy Pie Crust instructions (to prepare, do not bake). Divide into two disks and chill in plastic wrap.
For Quiche Lorraine:
Mix 1/2 of total quiche filling with all of the Lorraine mixture. Set aside.
For Quiche Florentine:
To steam the spinach: put 2 tablespoons water in frying pan, turn on the heat, add the spinach, on goes the lid, 2 minutes, strain, squeeze excess water from spinach and chop finely. Mix 1/2 of total quiche filling with all of the Florentine mixture. Set aside.
Roll out dough in two batches between plastic wrap or parchment. Cut out 2-inch circles. Use a tart tamper or your hands to push into mini muffin pans, squeezing up the sides. Alternatively, you can roll the dough into a ball and press into the pan with either a tart tamper or your fingers.
Fill with quiche filling. If you don't have the mini muffin pans, use the metallic mini muffin cups on a cookie sheet for a slightly larger version. Fill half of the crust cups with Lorraine filling and half with Florentine filling.
Bake in a preheated 375° oven for 15 to 17 minutes, until filling is set and tops are just starting to color.
