Ingredients
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite blend)
6 large eggs
1 cup milk (or unsweetened almond milk)
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp onion powder
Olive oil or butter for greasing
Dried herbs (such as parsley, dill, or chives) for topping (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Generously grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with olive oil or butter.
2. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 6 large eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until fully smooth and combined.
3. Layer Greens & Cheese: Scatter the chopped fresh spinach and shredded cheese evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
4. Pour & Top: Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and cheese. Sprinkle optional dried herbs on top for an added pop of color and flavor.
5. Bake & Cool: Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is set, golden around the edges, and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing into squares or wedges to serve!
