Crust
Make a crown with the flour and pour
oil and butter in the middle. Add 1tbs
water at a time and knead until a soft dough forms. Set aside while making pie filling.
1 cup flour (we used ½ all purpose
& ½ whole wheat), 1 tsp butter, 1 tsp oil, ½ cup salted warm water.

Filling
De-stem and finely chop swiss chard.
Heat 2tbs oil in a large skillet. Sautee one medium chopped onion until soft,
add 2 cloves garlic til fragrant, then swiss chard. Season with 1tsp oregano, salt, pepper, and
Italian seasoning to taste. Cook well.

In a medium bowl mix 3 eggs, 1 cup
ricotta cheese, ½ cup parmesan cheese.
Mix in swiss chard
|

Split pie dough in half and roll out
two thin crusts. Lay down the bottom
crust in your greased pie tin and pour in filling.
Make holes in the filling and add as many full eggs as you would like
without allowing them to break. (I used the smallest round cookie cutter,
pushing the filling aside I placed it in the pie and cracked an egg inside.)

Cover with second crust and bake at 350
for 45mins
