How to Make Ricotta & broccoli rabe pie
- Combine the beaten eggs with the ricotta cheese,parsley,salt and pepper. Saute the onions and garlic with the two tablespoons of butter,add the broccoli rabe or your choice of vegetable,season with salt and pepper. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Line your pie plate with the crust and flute the edges,easier to do that now the later,pour in the egg mixture. Top with shredded mozzarella and grated cheese.
- Place the pie on a cookie sheet to prevent spillage in your oven while it's baking. Bake for 45 minutes to one hour,check it towards the end by inserting a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean it's ready to serve. Let it rest for ten minutes before slicing.
- This can be served with a side of salad,soup or vegetable,also cut fresh fruit if you prefer. Enjoy!! :)
