Swiss Chard Pie

Recipe Description:

I created this recipe as a way to get my boys to devour all the bountiful greens we had in our garden. It’s similar to a quiche, but they love the idea of having “pie” for dinner.

Prep Time: 20 Minutes

Cook Time: 25 Minutes

Servings: 8 Servings

Difficulty: Moderate

Recipe Ingredients:

1 pie crust>/a> recipe for the bottom only

approx. 1 lb. of Swiss chard, chopped (Can use any other leafy greens as well)

1 Tablespoon grass-fed butter

1 onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tomato, diced

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

3/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

4 free-range eggs

1/2 c. raw shredded cheese

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400. Line a 9" pie pan with pie crust recipe. Pre-bake for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, sautee the onion and garlic in butter until soft and fragrant. Add the Swiss Chard, tomato, rosemary, salt and pepper. Cook until the chard greens are wilted and the stems softened.

Beat eggs together. Add cooked vegetable mixture and cheese to the eggs. Stir and pour into pre-baked crust. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the center of the pie is set. Cover crust edges with foil if they start to brown before the center is cooked.

Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Cut, serve and enjoy!
