Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup cream-style cottage cheese
- 1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon dried minced onion
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- 2
Crack open the eggs into a large mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Add cottage cheese, crumbled feta, and melted butter, and mix well.
- 3
Add all-purpose flour, minced onion, nutmeg, black pepper, and salt. Mix well—make sure the flour is completely incorporated to bind it all together. We need just such a consistency to firm up in the casserole easily.

Make sure thawed frozen spinach is drained very well. Excess water makes the casserole moist. If necessary, wrap it in a kitchen towel and squeeze out the moisture. Break down the spinach and fold it into the egg mixture to be distributed evenly. It is important to ensure that all bites end up having that great spinach taste.
- 5
Pour the spinach mixture into the buttered casserole. Spread out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until golden around the edges and firm in the center.

Let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes and then cut into squares for serving.
