    That sounds delicious. :)

    Here is my recipe ( a guide really) - I usually have more spinach and feta, and may have to throw in an extra egg. I use fresh dill, but my friend who gave it to me says that she sometimes also uses mint instead of dill. I've yet to try that.

    This is for an 8 " pie plate, but I usually double mine for a deep dish pie plate.

    2 large bundles of spinach steamed, chopped and drained ( about three cups) I use frozen spinach from my garden stash
    1 medium onion
    1/4 tsp garlic powder ( or 2 chopped cloves sauted with the onions)
    4 eggs
    125 g of feta ( or more... :) )
    3 Tbsp bread crumbs
    1/8 tsp nutmeg
    2 Tbsp chopped dill
    1/4 tsp pepper
    .
    ( You can add crisped bacon, mushrooms or chicken).
    Drain spinach thoroughly.

    Sautee onion until caramalized. (If using mushrooms, bacon or chicken cook with the onions. ) If using raw garlic, add towards the end of the caramalizing.

    Combine everything and pour into a glass pie plate lined with parchment.

    Bake 375 for 30 - 30 minutes until knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.

    I hope you enjoy it :)

    Melody, thank you for the recipe! I was going to do a "guess and by golly" in making it. I would never have thought about nutmeg, so having the recipe is such an advantage. Guess what we are having for dinner tomorrow!

    Brined BBQ chicken breast ( in the air fryer), green salad, grilled zucchini, and baby carrots.

    I'm really ejoying how sweet the baby carrots are that I froze every time I thinned carrots last year. The zucchini was sliced with a mandolin, grilled and then frozen. They also turned out great - still have texture and grilled taste. I'll definitely process my zucchinis that way again this summer. ( I have spring fever by the way....)

    That sounds great Pac. May I ask about the blueberry salad? Is it blueberries on a green salad?
