After seeing Kaz’s post on the recipe she found – Baked Bean Pinwheels, I knew I just had to try them.
For my choice of vegetables, I used grated carrot and zucchini. As I was mixing the ingredients together, I realised that I had a lot more than half a cup of vegetables. I had grated a whole carrot and a whole zucchini. I decided to use the rest of the baked beans (I had opened a 425g can), throw in all the vegetables and a bit more ham and cheese too. Then I had to get creative and think of something I could make with the left over mixture.
I followed the rest of the steps (except for leaving them to chill for 20-30 mins as my pastry was defrosted prior to using it) and put them in the oven to bake.
It took more than the recommended time for them to cook for me but that is usually the case with my oven.
They smelt lovely while cooking and once they were done I let them cool before B1 and B2 had a try. They loved them!!
Success!!
So now to my left over mix.
I added some avocado and an egg.
Mixed it all together. Got out my mini muffin tray and divided the mix between cups. Sprinkled a little cheese on top of each one.
Cooked in the oven for 20-25 mins and viola…..
Mini Crustless Quiches
I will definitely cook both of these again.
Thanks for the inspiration Kaz!
