Ingredients
Crust
1.25 c flour
1T + 2t corn starch
pinch of salt
6 T butter, cut into small chunks
1 egg
Filling
12oz baby spinach
1 T olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped finely
1 t dried thyme
3 eggs
1/2 c cream
1/2 c milk

Instructions
1) In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and salt.
2) Using a pastry cutter or food processor, cut in the
butter until the texture is like course sand.
3) Add egg and mix well with a fork - the dough should be
like wet, clumpy sand.
4) Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a
12" circle.
5) Press dough into a greased 9" circular pan, and refrigerate for
30 minutes (or freeze for 10-15).
7) Heat olive oil over medium heat, and saute onion until translucent, about 8 minutes.
8) Combine onion with spinach, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.
9) Combine eggs, cream, and cheeses in a large bowl.
10) Combine spinach mixture with cheese mixture, and pour evenly into the tart pan.
11) Place in oven and bake 40-45 minutes, until the eggs are well set. Allow to cool for several minutes before serving.
