Default LC Greek Spinach Pie Quiche

I have been trying to convert some of my favourite recipes to LC so that I am not tempted to cheat and I don't feel deprived - this one worked out so well, I thought I would share it.

6 eggs
1/4 c half&half cream
1/4 c cream cheese, softened
1/3 c feta cheese, crumbled
10 oz package of frozen, chopped spinach (thawed and drained)
1 tsp dill weed
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 c minced onion
salt and pepper to taste

Blend the eggs, cream and cream cheese. Add salt, pepper and dill.
Make sure the spinach is as dry as possible (I squeeze and blot it on paper towel). Mix it with the onion and garlic and spread it in a greased deep glass pie plate. Sprinkle with the feta, pour egg mixture over top.
Bake at 400 for 15mins then turn down to 350 and bake for 30mins. Let sit for 5mins to set.

This is awesome hot or cold. I've put it through FitDay and here's how it came out for the whole pie (b/c I'm never sure how big a serving is)

Carbs: 25 62 7%

Alcohol: 0 0 0%

By my calculation this is 16g net carbs for the whole darn pie! Enjoy!
