I'm not a big fan of leeks, but I really enjoyed this tart. The leeks were cooked perfectly and they added a subtle sweetness to the tart.

This tart was easy to make and turned out beautifully. The crust was crispy and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I used frozen spinach and it worked great. I also added a pinch of nutmeg to the filling, which gave it a nice warm flavor.
