This meatless entrée delivers the taste of the traditional Greek spinach pie without the hassle of phyllo dough.
Ingredients:
cooking spray
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 large eggs
1/2 cup fat-free milk
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup preshredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup minced fresh onion (about 1/4 medium onion)
2 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
2 (10-ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained, and squeezed dry
2 tablespoons chopped pitted kalamata olives
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray; set aside.
3. Combine flour, salt, oregano, and baking powder in a small bowl; set aside.
4. Beat eggs with a whisk until frothy (about 1 minute); add milk, cheeses, onion, and garlic. Add spinach and olives, stirring mixture well with a fork. Using a rubber spatula, fold the reserved dry ingredients into the spinach mixture. Transfer to prepared pie dish, and smooth top.
5. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until the filling is slightly puffed, lightly browned around the edges, and set in the center. Remove from oven, and cool 5 minutes before serving.
