My 1-year-old son loves these warm for lunch, or cold for a picnic lunch at the park. You can line with pastry if desired. Use muffin, mini-muffin or friand tins; or use a regular pie/quiche tin to convert to family-size. Ingredients:
150 g frozen spinach |
200 g smooth ricotta cheese |
2 eggs |
3/4 cup grated tasty cheese |
40 g cream cheese spread |
1 tablespoon onion flakes or 1 tablespoon onion powder |
1 teaspoon vegetable stock powder |
1 pinch nutmeg |
butter, for greasing tin |
Directions:
1. Cook spinach according to directions on packet. Cool.
2. In a large bowl, whisk ricotta, eggs, cheeses, onion flakes, stock powder and nutmeg together until smooth.
3. Add spinach.
4. Grease the muffin or friand tins with the butter.
5. Spoon mixture into cases (I get six mini-quiches from this mixture).
6. Bake in moderately hot (180C) oven for 30-40 minutes, or until golden on outside and cooked through.
