I have a couple of friends that I exchange meals with and this is always a favorite, which explains the large number of servings. Ingredients:
3 pie crusts |
28 ounces frozen chopped spinach (cooked and squeeze drained) |
4 tablespoons butter |
1 cup chopped onion |
2 minced garlic cloves |
6 tablespoons butter |
6 tablespoons flour |
3 cups milk |
3 teaspoons salt |
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper |
12 eggs |
1 1/2 lbs shredded mozzarella cheese |
3 teaspoons vanilla |
2 teaspoons nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Bake the pie crusts until golden brown in a pre-heated 350 degree oven.
2. Heat 4 tablespoons butter in skillet; sauté onion and garlic.
3. Stir in the cooked, squeezed drained spinach.
4. In another saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons butter, stir in flour.
5. Gradually stir in milk until it thickens, then add salt, pepper, vanilla, nutmeg and spinach mixture.
6. Beat eggs; stir eggs and cheese into mixture.
7. Evenly divide entire mixture between baked pie crusts.
8. Cover edges of pie crusts with foil and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes (or until firm and puffed.).
9. This tastes like a quiche and can be served either as a side dish or as the main course.
