Cheats Spinach Pie

  1. Preheat the oven to about 200C.
  2. Grease a round cake tin or springform pan, then push the tortilla into the base so that it creates a sort of pie crust.
  3. It will flute around the edges a little; thats okay, the mix will push it out.
  4. Put the pie crust in the oven to crisp a little while you make your mix.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with as much salt and pepper as you like.
  6. Add the diced spinach and onion to the mix.
  7. (Frozen spinach is okay, but dont use frozen onions, thats just nasty.)
  8. Pour this mix into the pie crust which should just be getting crispy now.
  9. Then scatter the cubes of cream cheese right on top of the eggy spinachy mix.
  10. (Bursts of cream cheese in this are awesome!)
  11. Then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and maybe a bit more salt and pepper and chuck it in the oven at 200C for 20-25 minutes (depending on how good your oven is, mine is terrible).
  12. Its ready when a skewer comes out clean and the Parmesan is just starting to go brown.
  13. Your crust should just be crispy at the very top but soft and flaky on the bottom.
  14. This is a basic recipe.
  15. Mix it up; asparagus also works well, as does bacon and finely sliced potato.
  16. Have fun!
