Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 ¼ cups reduced-fat milk
4 large eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
3 ounces crumbled feta cheese (3/4 cup)

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in spinach; remove from heat.
Meanwhile, whisk milk, eggs, dill, lemon zest, salt and pepper together in a medium bowl.
Spread the spinach mixture evenly in the prepared pie plate. Sprinkle with feta, then pour in egg mixture. Bake until firm to the touch and a knife inserted into the center comes out dry, 45 to 50 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh chopped dill, if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
