Ingredients

    1/2 a large red onion, diced
    1/2 a book of frozen spinach box (5 oz), defrosted
    1/2 a medium red pepper, diced
    3 eggs, large
    1 egg white
    3/4 cup 1% Milk, 1%
    3/4 tsp. salt, divided
    1/2 tsp. back pepper, divided
    1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
    1 frozen 9'' pie crust
    4.5 oz. Gruyere Cheese, shredded
    1 tbsp. Olive Oil

Directions

Heat oven to 375° F.

In a large skillet, over medium-low heat, heat the oil. Add the onions, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Cover and cook until the onions are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the red peppers and spinach and cook, covered, for 3 to 4 more minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and 1% milk. Stir in the Gruyère, nutmeg, the remaining salt and pepper, and the onion/spinach mixture.

Place the piecrust on a foil-lined baking sheet. Spoon the egg mixture into the piecrust; it will be very full. Bake until the filling is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
