Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 1.5-qt (1.5L) baking dish (mine is an oval that measures about 9 x 7 in/23 x 18 cm) or 9-in (23-cm) pie pan with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
  2. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach and cook, tossing frequently, until wilted, 4 to 5 minutes. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, yogurt, polenta, garlic, salt and pepper; whisk until smooth. Add the feta, pecorino Romano, and dill, and whisk until evenly combined. Stir in the wilted spinach.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish or pie pan, and bake until just set and puffed, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.
