I'm a mad scientist in the kitchen...here's some of my latest low carb concoctions.
Can make this is a glass baking dish or tripling the recipe and baking it in a loaf pan.
SPINACH BREAD
Butter for greasing baking dish
1 (10 oz) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
4 large eggs, beaten
1/4 tsp crushed garlic
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter an 8x8 baking dish
Mix together spinach, eggs and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 15 minutes or until mixture has set. Allow to cool slightly . Cut into squares. Use a spatula to remove squares from pan. Refrigerate or freeze until ready to use.
FOR LOAF
Triple the ingredients and pour into a well buttered loaf pan. Place pan on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes at 350 degrees. A whole loaf will yield 12 slices. use what you need;wrap well and freeze extra slices or loaves
A bit firmer type is as followes:
2 10 oz packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
8 large eggs, beaten
1/4 tsp crushed garlic
salt and pepper to taste
.1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup Flax seed meal
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
Follow the same cooking directions.
Yield 14 slices: 89 Calories, 3.5 Carbs, 4.6 fat, 7.6 Protein-per servings
You can serve it thinner if you want, but make sure you have chilled it in the frig first. The entire loaf has 1250 Calories, 45 Carbs and 65 Fat and you can divide the amount of slices.
It actually does replace bread (accept for toast for jam....:eek: )You can even toast it as long as it's pre-chilled AND sliced thin. You can make a grilled cheese from this, sandwiches, etc.
It really does fill you up, too!
