Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • Salt (1 teaspoon, or to taste)
  • Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon, or to taste)
  • Milk (1/4 cup)
  • Eggs (3, large)
  • Goat cheese (4 ounces)
  • Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
  • Cherry tomatoes (1 cup)
  • Swiss chard (4 cups, chopped)
  • Pie crust (1 (9-inch) crust)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out the pie crust and press it into a 9-inch tart pan. Trim any excess dough and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Add the chopped Swiss chard to the skillet, season with half the salt and pepper, and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  5. In a separate baking dish, toss the cherry tomatoes with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until slightly charred and juicy.
  6. Spread the sautéed Swiss chard evenly over the prepared pie crust.
  7. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour this mixture over the Swiss chard in the pie crust.
  8. Arrange the roasted cherry tomatoes on top of the tart, and crumble the goat cheese over the tomatoes.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tart is set and the crust is golden brown.
  10. Allow the tart to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This tart is delicious served warm or at room temperature.
