Ingredients
- 10 cups fresh baby spinach
- 1 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk
- 0.5 cup nutritional yeast
- 6 large eggs
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add the baby spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring until each batch wilts down before adding more, about 3-4 minutes total.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, nutritional yeast, salt, pepper, and ground nutmeg until fully combined.
Step 5
Stir the wilted spinach and onion mixture into the egg mixture, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
Step 6
Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with a bit of olive oil, then pour the spinach and egg mixture into the dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned and the center is set.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
