Ingredients

• 2 packs Ramen noodles (instant, uncooked)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 cups Spinach leaves, fresh
• 4 pieces Eggs, beaten
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.25 cup Basil leaves, fresh, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish with olive oil or non-stick spray.

Step 2

Cook the ramen noodles according to the package instructions, but without the seasoning packets. Drain the noodles and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until they soften and start to burst.

Step 5

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper.

Step 7

Add the cooked ramen noodles to the bowl, ensuring they are fully coated with the egg mixture.

Step 8

Gently fold in the sautéed tomato and spinach mixture, along with the shredded mozzarella and chopped basil leaves.

Step 9

Pour the entire mixture into the prepared pie dish and spread it evenly.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pie is set and the top is golden brown.

Step 11

Allow the pie to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Ramen Under the Tuscan Sun Pie warm or at room temperature!
