Spinach Pie- Amy McAllister

We just made this for the first time a week ago, and we've made it twice since then! its great to throw leftovers into and I'm not a fan of pie crust, so I enjoy the tortilla crust.

Ingredients
5 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
3 roasted garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
1 dash salt
3 slices cooked bacon, chopped (optional)
1 large flour tortilla
1 1/2 cups any blend shredded cheese
3 cups fresh spinach

Directions
1Mix the first six ingredients (eggs, bacon, milk, garlic, lemon pepper and salt) in a bowl. Set aside.
2Lay the flour tortilla in a glass pie dish, press gently - does not need to lay perfectly flat against dish.
3Sprinkle only 1/2 cup cheese on tortilla.
4Sprinkle remaining cheese and the spinach onto tortilla in layers, and press gently.
5Pour egg mixture evenly over spinach, be careful not to pour any outside of tortilla.
6Bake in oven at 365 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes. Insert fork in center and it should come out clean.
7Use sharp knife to cut into pie slices and serve hot.
8Other options: Instead of garlic, you can use 1/4 cup onions. For added flavor, serve with homemade salsa.
