This recipe does not use a crust, but you can, however, make this using a gluten free (or regular crust), a grain-free crust like this, or line the pan with thinly sliced potatoes for a *potato crust (see below).

Ingredients
1 package frozen spinach or kale, defrosted and drained (about 1 cup), or 1 cup fresh spinach
1 red or yellow bell pepper, chopped
1/4 cup thinly sliced sweet onion
1/4-1/3 cup grated cheese (optional)
1 Tbsp chopped fresh basil or other fresh herbs
10-12 whole eggs
2 Tbsp unsweetened almond, coconut or flax milk
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
A couple squirts of Tabasco or other hot sauce
2-4 slices cooked, drained and chopped bacon (optional)

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Mix spinach, bell pepper, onion, cheese, bacon and herbs together. Add to pre-baked crust, if using.
Whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper till foamy.
Pour egg mixture over veggie mixture in pie pan.
Bake for 60-75 minutes or until crust golden brown and center is firm. Cool slightly before serving. Makes great leftovers for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

Notes: You can substitute most any veggies in this recipe. Try mushrooms, zucchini, asparagus, etc.

*Potato crust: Using a mandoline or food processor, thinly slice a couple of potatoes. Heat oven to 425. Add a very small amount of olive oil to pie pan, and spread to bottom and sides. Lay potatoes flat in pan, overlapping them slightly. Spread around sides and overlap where pan sides join the bottom. Bake 15 minutes or until golden colored around edges.
