Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup (225g) cottage cheese
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) garlic powder
  • 5 oz (140g) fresh baby spinach
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) olive oil
  • 2 cloves (6g) garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup (56g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup (35g) feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions:

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and spinach, sautéing until the leaves are wilted (about 2-3 minutes).
  2. Transfer the sautéed spinach to a colander and press firmly with a spoon, or wrap in a kitchen towel and squeeze to remove all excess liquid. Roughly chop the spinach.
  3. Place the eggs, cottage cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder into a blender. Process on high for 30 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and pale yellow.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or oven-safe skillet with oil or cooking spray.
  5. Stir the chopped spinach and shredded cheddar into the blended custard.
  6. Pour the mixture into the dish and sprinkle the crumbled feta evenly across the top.
  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are a mahogany-colored gold.
