Instructions
Preheat oven to 375.
Saute asparagus and spinach until asparagus is vibrant green and spinach is just wilted. To do this, heat a large saute pan over low to medium heat. Add in enough olive oil to coat the pan. Once hot, add in garlic and saute until garlic is light brown, about a minute. Add in spinach and asparagus and saute until vibrant green and spinach is just wilted, about five minutes. Set aside.
Make pie crust and place in pie plate (see here for details if using my pie crust!).
Combine eggs and milk in a bowl and whisk to combine thoroughly. Add in salt and pepper.
Place in asparagus and spinach on top of pie dough. Pour egg mixture over asparagus and spinach. Top with grated cheese if using.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, until set and a knife comes through cleanly.
