  3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and cream together. Mix in kale and green onion then season with salt and pepper. Pour mixture into pie crust, covering other ingredients.
  4. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 20-25 minutes or until centre of quiche is cooked. If crust is becoming too dark, cover crust with tin foil.
