Leftover roast chicken works well in this recipe, or you could replace the chicken with a can of tuna.

Instructions

Step 1 Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a 23cm pie dish with pastry and trim excess. Cover base with baking paper and fill with pastry weights or beans. Blind bake according to packet directions.

Step 2 Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat and spray with oil. Add leek and mushrooms and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until soft and lightly browned. Add spinach and stir until wilted. Remove from heat and stir in chicken.

Step 3 Whisk eggs and milk in a jug until combined. Spread chicken mixture over pastry base and pour in egg and milk. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake for 20 minutes or until just set. Serve with green salad.
