Equipment
Ingredients
- 12 oz fresh baby spinach
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves; coarsely chopped or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 4 eggs
- 3/4 cup low-fat milk
- 2 oz Swiss cheese; grated 1/2 cup
- 1 oz freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1/4 cup
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt divided
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.

- Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add 1/4 tsp salt and whisk in the milk.

- Add the cheeses and combine.
- Scrape into the tart pan. Place in the oven and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until tart is set and beginning to color on the top. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting.
