Spinach Tart (Adapted from "The Meat Free Monday Cookbook" by Paul McCartney)

    • 1 Ready-to-bake pie crust
    • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
    • 5 ounces baby spinach, coarsely chopped
    • 4 tablespoons butter
    • 2 cups grated cheddar cheese
    • 2 whole eggs, plus 2 egg yolks
    • 2/3 cup heavy cream
    • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
    • salt and pepper, to taste

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a tart pan or a pie pan with the crust, and bake for 12 minutes.

2. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium/high heat. Sauté the onion until soft and translucent.

3. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped spinach until completely combined. Spread the

spinach/onion mixture onto the bottom of the pie crust.

4. In a blender or food processor, combine the cheese, eggs & yolks, cream, mustard and salt and pepper. Pour over

the spinach/onion and return to the oven for 22-26 minutes, until the top is golden. Turn off the heat and leave in

the oven for an additional 5 minutes.

To freeze: cut the pie into slices and freeze individually, wrapped in parchment and placed into a freezer bag. To serve,

defrost completely and reheat in your microwave.
