We got this recipe from my husband's son after he served us an incredible brunch a few years back. I changed the crust and you won't believe the taste. It's like having your eggs and buttered toast all in one dish. I put about 1 cup of regular breadcrumbs mixed with 1 tbsp of melted butter and patted down into a deep pie plate. Then beat 6 eggs with a whisk, stir in the following:
1/2 cup milk or heavy cream
1 tbsp corn starch
1 box frozen spinach that has been thawed and ALL of the water squeezed out if it. (Yes you will need to use your hands and squeeze the spinach)
1/2 cup cheddar
1/2 cup ricotta or 4oz goat cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan or romano
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp basil
Sprinkle of salt, pepper and crushed red pepper flakes. I added Tony Chacheres as well.
Pour into pie crust and sprinkle cheese on top. Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes. Let it cool 5 minutes. Cut and serve with a nice fruit or mixed green salad..or both!
