Directions
This Spanakopita Baked Egg dish is a low-carb take on the classic spanakopita without the phyllo dough. I think this makes a lovely spring dish for breakfast or brunch, but really, its wonderful any time of day. For a fun appetizer Spanakopita, try my Mini Greek Spinach Pies, and for a crustless pie version youll love this Crustless Spinach and Feta Pie.,Spanakopita is pronounced Spa-nah-koh-pee-tah.,If youre serving this spanakopita baked eggs for breakfast, its great on its own, or you could add some fruit or breakfast potatoes.,The spinach only needs to be about 90% thawed as the rest will happen while cooking. You can thaw it one of four ways: Overnight in the fridge In the microwave In a bowl of cold water for a few minutes Blanched in boiling water and rinsed with cold water,I like to add salt to the onions right away to draw out the water it helps them cook a little quicker when theres not much oil.,use Diamond Crystal, the least salty kosher salt. This recipe uses one teaspoon of salt, but you can cut back if youre on a low-sodium diet. The lemon juice also helps bring out the flavors in this egg bake.,Greek Pasta Salad,Greek Chicken Meal Prep Rice Bowls,Greek Chickpea Salad,Greek Mac and Cheese,Greek 7 Layer Dip
