A quick and budget-friendly recipe that’s both practical and delicious!

Ingredients:

  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 450 grams (about 1 pound) broccoli
  • 200 grams (about 7 ounces) bacon, cut into cubes
  • 100 grams (about 1 cup) mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup oatmeal or oat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Broccoli:
    • Cut the broccoli into florets and cook in boiling water for about 3-4 minutes until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Cook the Bacon and Vegetables:
    • In a skillet, heat a bit of olive oil and fry the bacon cubes until crispy. Remove and set aside.
    • In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook until softened and aromatic, about 2 minutes.
    • Add the cooked broccoli to the skillet with the onion and garlic. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  3. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
    • In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the tablespoon of olive oil. Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese (reserve a small amount for topping) and the cooked bacon mixture.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients:
    • Stir in the oatmeal (or oat flour) and baking powder. Mix well. Taste and adjust the salt if needed.
  5. Assemble the Pie:
    • Grease a baking dish with butter and flour. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish.
    • Sprinkle the reserved mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese on top.
  6. Bake:
    • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the pie is set.
