• 1 tablespoon Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.

Step 5

Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

Distribute the Velveeta cubes evenly over the Spam mixture in the pie crust.

Step 11

Carefully pour the egg mixture over the filling, making sure it spreads evenly and does not overflow.

Step 12
