Spinach Zucchini Goat Cheese Walnut Quiche

Super long name, but not super difficult... I combined a few different quiche recipes and it turned out okay... I only used 1 round of fresh goat cheese- next time I'll use two.

Spinach Zucchini Goat Cheese Walnut Quiche
-1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced
-1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
-1 unbaked pie crust
-2 rounds fresh goat cheese (about 6-8 oz)
-3 eggs
-8 oz crème fraiche
-salt and pepper
-2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
-toasted chopped walnuts
Sautee the zucchini in butter or olive oil until tender, set aside to cool slightly. Wipe out sautee pan and reheat. Toast the walnuts until slightly browned... be careful not to walk away, they burn quickly! Set nuts aside. Roll pie crust into a pie dish and sprinkle with 2/3 of the goat cheese. Lay zucchini over cheese. In a medium bowl, beat eggs, crème fraiche, salt and pepper. Stir in chopped spinach until well coated. Pour mixture over the zucchini and top with remaining goat cheese and finally walnuts. Bake at 350° for 30-40 minutes.
