Wash the spinach or chard and chop it coarsely.
Soften the onion and garlic in olive oil, then add the greens and cook until their liquid evaporates.
Let the greens cool slightly, then mix with the cheese, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.
Place the first sheet of dough in the pan and spread the filling over it.
Make hollows in the filling, crack the eggs in whole, and cover with the second dough layer.
Bake until the dough is browned and the eggs are set.
💡 Tip: Cooking off the greens well keeps the base from turning doughy.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice while warm and serve with a tomato salad and yogurt sauce.
