Ingredients

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

2 medium leeks, white and green parts only, chopped

28 ounces curly spinach, stemmed and roughly chopped

14 ounces Swiss chard, tough stalks removed, leaves roughly chopped

A pinch of nutmeg

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

9 ounces ricotta cheese

1 cup grated Gruyère

1/4 cup grated parmesan

1/4 cup toasted pine nuts

8 ounces puff pastry

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and chard, and raise the heat to high. Sauté until all the greens are completely wilted and all the liquid has evaporated. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Once the greens have cooled slightly, add the ricotta, Gruyère, parmesan, and pine nuts, and stir to completely combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Roll out the pastry on a parchment-lined sheet tray to a 12-inch circle. Spread the spinach mixture on top. Bake until the pastry is golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Cut into slices and serve.
