  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon sun-dried tomato oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped shallots; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add chopped garlic, 2 teaspoons oregano and ½ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 5 ounces spinach; cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool for 5 minutes.

    Combine 8 eggs, ⅓ cup half-and-half, ⅓ cup milk, 1 tablespoon mustard, ½ teaspoon pepper and ½ teaspoon salt in a large bowl; whisk to thoroughly combine. Fold in the cooled spinach mixture and ⅔ cup crumbled goat cheese.

    Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pie pan; top evenly with the remaining ⅓ cup goat cheese. Bake until set and lightly browned around the edges, 35 to 40 minutes. If needed, loosely cover with foil to prevent overbrowning. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
