Spinach Ricotta Pie
Spinach and ricotta pie is a 4 ingredient brunch, lunch, or dinner with almost no active prep! This take on a crustless quiche is chock full of greens and rich cheese and plenty of flavor thanks to an ingenious secret ingredient.
Do you love a good quiche?
Or a frittata, which is essentially an baked Italian omelet or a crustless quiche?
This spinach ricotta pie is just that!
But instead of using cream to make the egg filling, this relies on- you guessed it- ricotta cheese beaten into the eggs.
The whole thing gets baked until it’s set and makes the perfect brunch, lunch, or dinner option anytime!
Ingredients
To make this you’ll need:
- Spinach– A 10 ounce package of frozen spinach. Thaw it and press it through a strainer to get rid of the excess moisture.
- Ricotta cheese– 15 ounces. Use whole milk or part skim, but I’d avoid the fat free kind as the texture tends to be drier and more crumbly. Strain any excess moisture off the ricotta.
- Boursin cheese– A 5.3 ounce package of garlic herb variety. Unwrap it.
- Eggs– Lightly beaten
How to Make
This spinach ricotta pie will be one of your new favorites because it’s so easy!
To make it, spray a 9″ pie plate with nonstick spray.
Set the pie plate aside while you press the thawed spinach between layers of paper towels to get rid of the extra moisture.
Keep doing this until the spinach is completely dry.
Then stir the spinach, ricotta cheese, boursin cheese, and eggs together in a mixing bowl until everything is all combined.
Season it with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared pie plate, making sure it’s spread out in an even layer.
Bake at 375° for 45 to 50 minutes or until the pie is set and golden brown.
Slice, serve, and enjoy!
Storing Leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheat in the microwave or hot oven until warmed through.
Serving Suggestions
This spinach ricotta pie makes an excellent main for brunch, lunch, or dinner.
For brunch, serve it with your favorite breakfast meat, breakfast potatoes, and fruit salad.
At lunch and dinner I’d recommend a nice green salad and good bread on the side.
