Crustless Spinach and Onion Pie

Created by KittenCal on December 12, 2011

4 tablespoons butter
1 onion, medium (chopped)
3 garlic cloves, minced (garlic lover’s can use more if desired)
Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
10 ounces spinach, frozen (one 10 ounce box frozen chopped spinach, thawed, cooked to package directions then hand-squeezed to remove as much moisture as possible)
4 eggs, large (lightly beaten)

Step 1: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate.
Step 2: Heat butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add in yellow chopped onions and saute until softened (about 4 minutes). Add in garlic and cayenne pepper; cook for 2 minutes; transfer to a large bowl and cool for about 10 minutes.
Step 3: Add in spinach, eggs, cottage cheese, green onions, 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese and 2 cups Tex-Mex shredded cheese; mix until well blended. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 4: Transfer to greased pie plate or quiche dish. Sprinkle the top with 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese (can use a little more cheese if desired).
Step 5: Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for about 50 minutes or until the eggs are set.
