I made this with a bunch of silver beet (swiss chard) from a generous friend's garden. It was a perfect way to use this 'gift' and so easy to bring together. I have two recommendations. First, it is hard to stir grated cheese and crumbled feta into wilted greens, so next time i would scatter the spinach/silver beet in base of the pie plate and then sprinkle over the cheeses. Also I used five smaller eggs, so decided to use a 10-inch (6-cup) pie plate. I wonder if the recipe, as written, would actually fit in a 4-cup plate. Will be making this again and hoping for another contribution of silver beet. This pie was really popular at home. Thanks for posting.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
