20 ounces fresh or frozen spinach
4 eggs
2 cups cottage cheese
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1 cup Gruyere cheese, grated
7 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon crushed red chili peppers or Aleppo pepper
10 ounces butternut squash, cut into 1/2 inch dice

1
If using fresh spinach, steam until wilted, drain well and chop coarsely. If using frozen, defrost and squeeze well. Set aside.
2
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
3
In a large bowl, stir together the eggs, cheeses, flour, garlic, salt, green onions and chili peppers. Gently mix in the spinach and butternut squash.
4
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake for 40-45 minutes, until the casserole is set, golden brown on top and the edges are crispy (my favorite part!). Serve warm.
5
You can prep this the night before (but don't bake) and refrigerate it overnight. In the morning, bake and serve as directed
