Spinach Tart - Tarte Herbes aux Epinards
This recipe is from the kitchen of Marc Heracle in Provence. It is a more traditional dish as it uses typical local products (olives, spinach, olive oil). This is a simple dish to make. You can serve as a starter or as a main with a big salad. You may never make pizza again!
