Spinach Pie With Muenster Crust - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed
12 ounces muenster cheese, slices
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 cup low fat cottage cheese (or regular)
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Garnish
pimiento strips or chopped tomato (I never do but looks nice, OPT)
Preparation
-
Drain spinach well, pressing between layers of paper towels (or whatever) and set aside.
Cut 2-3 cheese slices into small triangles, and reserve for garnish.
Cover bottom and sides of a lightly greased 9 or10-inch pieplate with remaining Muenster slices, overlapping cheese as needed.
Combine spinach, onion and next 5 ingredients.
Spoon into cheese-lined pieplate.
Bake 350 for 45 minutes or until set.
Cool 10 minutes before serving.
Garnish with reserved cheese triangles and pimiento strips, if desired.
