yes, that says "spinach brownies"
...now, i know what you're thinking (eeeeeeew!) but keep reading - these are delicious!
here's the original recipe:
1 (10 ounce) package spinach, rinsed and chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 onion, chopped (add garlic to taste)
1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese (and/or monteray jack, feta, swiss, parmesan ...or a combination!)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Saute onions, then place chopped spinach in pan. Cook about 3-5 minutes (until spinach is limp).
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder. Stir in eggs, milk and butter. Mix in spinach, onion and mozzarella cheese.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool before serving.
here's the link - i switched the recipe a bit... i don't recommend boiling the spinach (lose nutrients) and sauteing is yummy! and i added some garlic. and combined a few different cheeses. and...that's it :)
**variation** use kale or chard (or a combination of both, quite possibly with spinach, too!)
i made a pan of these brownies, and will eat a square or two en route to work this week. it's like a breakfast quiche... yum.
