How to Make Impossible Greek Spinach Pie

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, in 1 tablespoon olive oil until softened. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine 10 ounces (280g) fresh spinach, thoroughly washed and chopped, with the sautéed onion and 14 ounces (400g) cottage cheese. Season with 1 teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
In a blender, combine 2 large eggs, ½ cup (120ml) milk, ¼ cup (30g) grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and ¼ teaspoon nutmeg. Blend until smooth.
Spread the spinach and cottage cheese mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the blended egg mixture evenly over the spinach mixture.
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the pie is set and lightly golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
