Greens and Cornbread Quiche with Bacon (gluten free, milk free)

Greens and Cornbread Quiche

Bacon.

(And fresh greens in a quiche, with a cornbread crust. It is a fun fusion fusion dish fit for brunch.)

This is how it is done:

1 lb farm fresh bacon
4 cups chopped greens (I used kale.)
1 red onion, chopped
1 tbsp finely chopped mushrooms
1/4 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp mustard powder
4 large eggs (or 3 duck eggs)
1/4 cup water

1 cup non-GMO cornmeal
1 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp pepper
2/3 cup water

Preheat the oven to 350F.

In a sauté pan, cook the bacon, leaving it soft. Grease the bottom of a 12" square baking dish (or 14" round) with the drippings. If the bacon is lean, use avocado or coconut oil.

Create the crust: mix the cornmeal, baking powder, and pepper in a bowl. Add the water and stir well. Spoon the mixture into the bottom of the pan.

Mix the greens, mushrooms, and onions together. Layer a quarter of the mixture over the cornbread, followed by a quarter of the bacon, and repeat until all the layers are assembled. Beat the eggs, water and seasoning together in a bowl and evenly pour over the top of the bacon and greens.

Bake until a knife comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

Baked Apple Oatmeal (gluten free, no added sugar, dairy free option)

Baked Apple Oatmeal (gluten free, no added sugar, dairy free option)

Amid the morning rush, quietly baking away, could be a belly-warming breakfast filling your kitchen with the aroma of baked apples and cinnamon. The boys ask for Baked Apple Oatmeal often, and  since it is easy, I never tire of making it.

For four generous servings:

5-6 apples, peeled and chopped
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil

Preheat the oven to 375. Meanwhile, grease a lidded pyrex casserole dish with butter or coconut oil.

To the pyrex dish, add the chopped apples. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon, about a teaspoon, or less for a milder flavour. Sprinkle with the salt. Add the rolled oats and coconut. Hold the lid on the casserole dish and shake the ingredients together. Drizzle the melted butter or coconut oil over the top, then put the lid back on.

Bake for about 45 minutes with the lid on, and another ten with the lid off. Serve right away, with a touch of milk if you like.
