This Spinach Pie Super Simple recipe is a healthy and delicious way to add more vegetables to your diet. Spinach is combined with red onion, garlic, and parmesan cheese to create a flavorful filling, while the crust is made with olive oil instead of butter for a healthier option. This recipe can be adapted to fit individual dietary needs, such as adding extra vegetables, leaving out the cheese, or using a different type of flour. It is a great choice for a filling and satisfying lunch or dinner, and can be easily reheated for leftovers.

Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2.In a large bowl, mix together the chopped spinach, diced red onion, minced garlic clove, parmesan cheese, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
3.In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Slowly add in the water and olive oil, stirring until the dough comes together and forms a ball.
4.On a floured surface, roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch (23-cm) pie dish. Transfer the dough to the dish and press it down along the sides and bottom.
5.Pour the spinach mixture onto the dough and spread it out evenly.
6.Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the spinach mixture, if desired.
7.Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
8.Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with mint leaves, if desired.
