Make This Recipe
Ingredients
- 12 Eggland's Best egg (large)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil, plus more for the pan
- 1/2 small red onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 (14-ounce) can water-packed artichokes
- 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes (about 5 ounces)
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
- 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 1 cup)
- 1/2 ounce Parmesan cheese, finely grated (about 1/4 cup)
- 1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
- 6 ounces baby spinach (about 6 cups)
- 2 cups whole or 2% milk
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Preparation
- Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 375°F. Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
- Prepare the vegetables and cheeses: Thinly slice 1/2 small red onion. Finely chop 2 garlic cloves. Drain and coarsely chop 1 can artichokes. Halve 1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, or quarter if large. Finely chop 1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves. Crumble 4 ounces 1 cup feta cheese (about 1 cup). Finely grate 1/2 ounces Parmesan cheese (about 1/4 cup).
- Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the red onion and 1/2 teaspoon of the kosher salt, and cook until soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and artichokes and cook until the garlic is fragrant about 1 minute. Add 6 ounces spinach (about 6 cups) and cook until just wilted about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the vegetables to the prepared baking dish and arrange in an even layer. Sprinkle the tomatoes and feta cheese evenly over the vegetables.
- Whisk the Parmesan, oregano, 12 Eggland’s Best large eggs, 2 cups whole or 2% milk, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt together in a large bowl until combined. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables.
- Bake until puffed, set, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 160°F, about 30 minutes. Let the casserole cool for 10 minutes before serving.
