1 1/2  cups uncooked quinoa rinsed
16 eggs
2 cans evaporated milk (or 2 1/2 cups milk)

3 tsp chopped fresh thyme
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
4 cups baby spinach packed, roughly chopped

2 cups finely shredded Romano Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven 350. Butter a large deep dish.  (If halving this recipe use an 8x8 metal or glass baking dish)  Add eggs into a large bowl and whisk.  Add all other ingredients BUT NOT the cheese into a large bowl and stir well.  Pour mixture into dish and jiggle slightly to settle the quinoa.  Cover tightly with foil.  Bake 45 min.  Remove foil and sprinkle all the cheese evenly over top.  Return to oven and  bake 15 min longer until lightly golden on top.  Cool about 5 min.
