Rich and scrumptious, this is a great brunch dish as well as any other meal! Fairly simple to make. I prefer chopped FRESH spinach but I am posting this recipe as it was given to me. Also, I add feta or Montrachet cheese sometimes if I have it on hand.

- In separate bowl, combine Ricotta cheese, cream Parmesan cheese and eggs and blend well.
- Add spinach mixture and stir well.
- Pour into prebaked pie shell and bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until custard is set.
- Garnish with finely chopped parsley and sliced cherry tomatoes if desired.
