  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Place the piecrust into the pan and pre-bake for 10 minutes.
    Set aside when finished.
  • Thaw frozen cut spinach leaves and remove all excess moisture.
  • Grate the cheddar cheese, dice the onion, and dice the ham.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine
    the milk, eggs, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  • In the partially baked crust, layer the ham,
    spinach, onions, and cheese; pour the milk mixture evenly over the cheese and meat mixture; then
    crumble the feta cheese on top, or use additional cheddar cheese and omit the feta.

    before serving. Garnish with salsa.

substituted, as well as different vegetables and meat.
