[quote=Anonymous]Making my first one. If I want to do spinach, what is a good cheese to go with it?

Also, should I use frozen spinach and cook it first, and then wring it out to drain like I do with lasagna? Or just thaw it first like I do with lasagna? Same question if I use broccoli - what cheese, and should I use frozen cooked broccoli, frozen thawed, or fresh/fresh cooked? And mushrooms and onions - just saute them in oil for a few minutes?

I'm a beginner cook and so looking for specific instructions! I found this recipe on another thread and this is what I'm thinking of trying because it looks fairly simple:

Get a refrigerated pie shell and bake it at 350 for about 15 mints (shouldn't be brown; just lightly baked). This will keep the crust from getting soggy.

Then, with a whisk, beat 5 eggs in a bowl until frothy. 
Add salt and pepper (I like to add cayenne as well) to taste and a quick dash of nutmeg; 
Add one a half tablespons of mayonnaise, a quarter cup of milk or cream, a tablespoon of flour, and half a teaspoon of baking powder; 
Whisk some more 
Add whatever you want to the filling: I like to use grated cheese and chopped ham, or spinach and bacon; or chicken and brocolli, or sauteed onions and roasted peppers. 
Mix everything well and pour into the half baked crust. Bake at 425 until lightly browned on top (about half an hour). Let cook for about 15 mins before cutting. Enjoy! [/quote]
