Spinach Ricotta Pie image

I got this recipe years ago from the nutrition department at Mass General Hospital. The hospital used to serve this in their cafeteria. Tasty and easy. I also use the filling for calzones and lasagna. You can lighten up the recipe by using low fat cheeses and sour cream plus egg substitute if desired.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This pie was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the pie turned out great. I made a few substitutions, using frozen spinach instead of fresh and a pre-made pie crust. It was still delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but this pie was surprisingly delicious. The ricotta cheese and Parmesan cheese really helped to balance out the flavor of the spinach. I would definitely make this again.

This spinach ricotta pie was a hit with my family! The flavors were perfectly balanced and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I will definitely be making this again.
