For this recipe for spinach pie you need a bag of spinach, a bit of gorgonzola, a cup of heavy cream, grated cheese, egg seasoning, puff pastry and eggs. I added whole boiled eggs in this spinach pie recipe, which is perfect for Easter and makes the quiche less dull.

Other recipes with eggs, which would be perfect for Easter are egg souffle, veggie burger omelet and stuffed scrambled eggs. Another good oven dish is this Green Bean Casserole with Bacon or the Eggplant Pesto Lasagna. Also a perfect recipe in the Spring is the Lettuce Stamppot with Cumin Cheese and Bell Pepper.

  1. I love the combination of flavours in here. I am not a great egg eater though, but actually this recipe lends itself well to that – I’d put the boiled eggs in for everyone else and leave a gap in my bit!
