2) Dice green onions and scallions, mince garlic, and saute in pan with 1 tbsp olive oil. Add some salt and pepper. Evenly distribute into glass baking dish on top of spinach pieces.
3) Cook ground beef in same pan as green onion mixture. Drain all remaining fluids. Sprinkle cooked meat evenly into baking dish on top of spinach and green onion mixture.
4) Whisk together the 4 whole eggs and the 10 egg whites. Measure out 1/3 - 1/2 cup fage and whisk very well into egg mixture. There will be chunks of yougurt showing. That's ok.
5) Measure in about 1/2 of your shredded cheese into the egg mixture and whisk together.
