**Ham And Spinach Pie**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 sheet of ready-made pie crust
– 1 cup diced cooked ham
– 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
– 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
– 1/4 cup chopped onion
– 3 eggs
– 1/2 cup milk
– Salt and pepper to taste
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish.
2. Place the sheet of pie crust into the prepared pie dish, pressing it gently to fit the bottom and sides. Trim off any excess crust hanging over the edges.
3. In a large skillet, cook the chopped onion over medium heat until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the diced ham to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
5. Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and cook until they are wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
6. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and milk together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Spread the ham, spinach, and onion mixture evenly over the pie crust in the pie dish. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
8. Pour the egg and milk mixture over the filling in the pie dish, making sure it is evenly distributed.
9. Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
10. Once cooked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
