Spinach Wild Rice Quiche

"From Ephrata, Pennsylvania, Leah Zimmerman writes, 'I turn to this recipe when entertaining a small group or looking for a quick Sunday meal.' Swiss cheese and spinach make this quiche tasty, but a store-bought pastry shell and last night's wild rice make it easy to assemble."
