Recipe inspired by a recipe given to me by my former colleague, Adriana.
This meal was a big thumbs up for the little ones in our house. I made sure to keep the olives on one side and tomatoes on the other side according to my kids’ preferences, with the middle portion containing a vegetable medley that we adults enjoyed.
Ingredients:
8 eggs, lightly beaten
6 tbsp pancake mix (I used @kodiakcakes mix, you can use GF or passover pancake mix)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup grated smoked Gouda (this added amazing flavor)
2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
120 grams frozen spinach, defrosted and liquid squeezed out
3 tbsp milk
1/2 tsp baking powder
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese .
Optional vegetable add ins:
Sautéed mushrooms
Caramelized onions
Sliced tomatoes
Sliced olives
Bell Peppers (unless you’re inviting me over for the meal – I won’t touch them)
Roasted broccoli
Etc
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Prepare whatever “add ins” need to be prepared (ex sauté mushrooms). Mix together all ingredients, excluding cheddar cheese and add-ins. If you’re not trying to keep the “add-ins” separate, you can mix them in once batter is made.
Pour into a heavily greased Pyrex (mine was 6.5×10) or quiche pan.
Add vegetable add-ins, separating them according to your children’s preferences if desired. Push some of them down so they span the height of the quiche.
Top with cheddar cheese. I also added goat cheese to the adult center portion.
Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes.
Serves 4
