This recipe does not use a crust, but you can, however, make this using a gluten free (or regular crust), a grain-free crust like this, or line the pan with thinly sliced potatoes for a *potato crust (see below).
Ingredients
1 package frozen spinach or kale, defrosted and drained (about 1 cup), or 1 cup fresh spinach
1 red or yellow bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup thinly sliced sweet onion
1/4-1/3 cup grated cheese (optional)
1 Tbsp chopped fresh basil or other fresh herbs
10-12 whole eggs
2 Tbsp unsweetened almond, coconut or flax milk
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
A couple squirts of Tabasco or other hot sauce
2-4 slices cooked, drained and chopped bacon (optional)
Mix spinach, bell pepper, onion, cheese, bacon and herbs together. Add to pre-baked crust, if using.
Whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper till foamy.
Pour egg mixture over veggie mixture in pie pan.
Bake for 60-75 minutes or until crust golden brown and center is firm. Cool slightly before serving. Makes great leftovers for breakfast, lunch or dinner!
