  • Place spinach in a colander; press out liquid. In large bowl, stir cream cheese until smooth; gradually stir in eggs, shredded cheese and onion powder. Stir in spinach.

  • Pour filling into pastry-lined pie plate. Bake in a 375° oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edges of crust with foil to prevent overbrowning. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
