    SPECIAL EQUIPMENT: 9" pie plate

    FOR MOM'S FLAKY PIE DOUGH: Combine the flour, butter,
    sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse until the
    chunks are pea-sized. Add the ice water 1 tablespoon at
    a time and pulse until the dough just begins to clump
    together against the walls of the processor.

    Dump the dough out onto a work surface and press
    together to make a cohesive ball, kneading once or twice
    if it is falling apart. Divide the dough in half, wrap 1
    portion in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour
    before rolling out. (This recipe makes a double portion
    of dough; if you are only using 1 portion, wrap the
    other half in 2 layers of plastic wrap, place in a
    resealable plastic bag and freeze for another use.)

    Set the oven @ 350┬║F/175┬║C.

    On a well-floured surface and using a well-floured
    rolling pin, roll out the pie dough into a 9" to 10"
    round. Lightly flour the pin as needed to prevent
    sticking; if the dough tends to stay sticky while
    rolling, refrigerate it until firm and begin again. Use
    a large flat spatula or bench scraper to transfer the
    dough to a 9" pie plate and press into shape using a
    fork.

    Place a sheet of parchment paper or foil into the pie
    shell and fill with pie weights, uncooked rice or dried
    beans. Bake until the edges are lightly golden, about 25
    minutes. Remove the pie crust but keep the oven on.

    FOR THE QUICHE: While the crust is baking, heat the oil
    in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add the
    mushrooms and cook until well browned and cooked
    through, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Then add in
    the mixed veggies to cook out any excess water and wilt
    the spinach leaves. Remove from the heat.

    In a large bowl, combine the eggs, cream, parsley,
    thyme, nutmeg, salt and pepper in a large bowl and
    lightly whisk. Sprinkle half of the Gruyere, Cheddar and
    Parmigiano-Reggiano on the crust, followed by the veggie
    mixture and then the remaining cheese. Pour the egg
    mixture over the top and bake until set, about 35
    minutes.

    Cool for 15 minutes, then cut into wedges and serve.

    COOKΓÇÖS NOTE: This recipe makes a double portion of
    dough. If you only need enough dough for a single crust,
    wrap the extra ball of dough in two layers of plastic
    wrap, place in a resealable plastic bag and freeze for
    another use.

    Yield: 8 servings
