If you want to get a head start on the dish to be ready the next morning, thaw the frozen spinach the night before and keep it in the fridge overnight. You could even mix the whole base together in advance – and then just crack the eggs in and bake!

Cook a pack of chopped frozen spinach according to the pack instructions and drain thoroughly.
