Prepare the Just Egg
  1. Open the bottle of Just Egg and add 1/4 tsp black salt and 1/16 teaspoon nutmeg (a little goes a long way). You can but the seasoning right into the bottle.
  2. Then put the lid back on and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds. This will allow your seasoning to thoroughly mix in with the liquid. Set. Aside.

Fill the Quiche
  1. Now it's time to fill the quiche! Place your quiche crust on a flat surface. I like to place mine on a cutting board so I can move it to the oven safely and easily.
  2. Add sautéed mushrooms, kale, and shallots into the bottom of the pie crust.
