Great one dish meal. Quick to do, healthy and tasty! Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 3 cups of coarsely shredded peeled potatoes (any variety although I like Yukon Golds best)
• 2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
• 1 tsp salt, divided
• 1/3 cup chopped onion
• 1 pkg (10 oz) frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 1 cup (4 oz) shredded Swiss cheese (non fat if watching fat grams, I sometimes use an Italian shredded mix cheese in place of Swiss)
• 1/2 cup fat free evaporated milk
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 egg whites, lightly beaten
• 1 tsp dried oregano (I sometimes omit the oregano & switch to a no salt spice blend many of which are offered at the grocers)
• 1/4 tsp pepper

Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, 4 tsp olive oil and ½ tsp salt. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9” pie plate coated with cooking spray.

Bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.

In a non-stick skillet, sauté onion in remaining oil until tender. In a bowl, combine spinach, Swiss cheese, milk, eggs, egg whites, oregano (or spice blend), pepper, onion and remaining salt. Pour into baked crust.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until top begins to brown and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting. Makes about 6 generous servings.
