You
do not need a crust, but it can be nice to eat.
- Coconut flour (or pastry four) mixed with butter and pressed in to a pan works good. Toast it a bit before adding the egg mixture. AND DRAIN THE SPINACH AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE BEFORE ADDING.
All
I do is steam a bunch of spinach or open a can of spinach is much
easier. mix in eggs and crumbled or shredded cheese (or add to the
top) in a large bowel. Then bake to melt the cheese and cook the
eggs. See my Wok-oven above, use a very low flame.
- Eggs
(you
don't need a recipé to tell you how many eggs to use)
- Spinach
(canned or fresh)
- Cheese
this is actually optional, but not for me (I like strong cheese
because the flavor goes farther with less cholesterol) Blue cheese
or Feta is best.
- Dried
Tomatoes
if you have a food drier.
- Mushrooms
(sauteed in vinegar and oil)
- Leeks
or Onions (caramelized in oil)
- Herbs
like oregano or basil
other
ingredients that are not essential:
- I would never use cream but some people can eat anything.
- TVP “Bacon” bits work if you keep them dry-ish, sprinkle on top after baking.
- Nutmeg?
- Meat ??? (like crunchy fried bacon.) or Canadian bacon.
My oven stopped working a couple years ago so I built one out of a wok for stove top use, see pix above. Pie plate on an empty tuna can. And a little water in the bottom of the wok to make steam. Glass lids are not essential but they help. Go to the GoodWill store.
