I had plenty of time to get hungry yesterday afternoon while I was on a long hike with one of my dogs. I felt creative so I came up with this simple egg and spinach pie recipe. I enjoyed it and I bet you will too. As usual, use organic ingredients when possible.
Ingredient List for the Crust
- 3/4 Cup Bob’s Red Mill Flaxseed Meal
- Whole wheat or white flour as needed
- 1 Cup rice flour
- 3 Cups water
- 2 Tablespoons baking powder
Ingredient List for the Filling Mix
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 can of Rotel Diced Tomatoes with Habaneros
- 4 Cups fresh spinach, chopped (I suppose you could use the frozen stuff if you prefer)
- 3 Cups cheddar cheese, diced or shredded
Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 350° F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flaxseed meal, rice flour, and baking powder.
- Add in the water and mix well.
- Start adding in the whole wheat or white flour a bit at a time, mixing until you have a nice, stiff ball of dough.
- Turn it out onto the surface of your choice (I used a casserole dish.
- Roll out your dough so that it fits in the dish on the bottom and up the inside walls.
- Combine the filling mix ingredients and pour them into the dough.
- Bake. Mine took 50 minutes for this first time experiment recipe. When the egg mixture doesn’t jiggle, you’ve got it right.
- In the last 10 minutes, distribute the cheese on top so it will melt.
- Remove it from the oven, give it a couple minutes, and enjoy!
I hope you enjoyed this egg and spinach dish. Like most of my recipes, this one was developed with substitutions in mind. I had cheddar cheese on hand and it worked out well, but I’ll most likely get a bit more creative next time. Leave a comment if you made a delicious change!
