I've been terrible about posting lately.  I just started a master's program in nutrition at American University and have just been exhausted trying to keep up with everything.  I hope today's post makes up for it a little.  I made the following two recipes in less than 25 minutes.  What's great is that I now have multiple meals done!

Spinach, egg and cheese bake

Makes 6 servings

Ingredients
1/3 c chopped fresh baby spinach
3 Tbs shredded Mexican mix cheese
4 medium eggs
salt and pepper to taste

Method

Set oven to 375 degrees.  Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  In a muffin tin, add 2 tablespoons of the mixture to each slot.  (I used silicone molds, but you can use cupcake liners for an easy traveling meal!)  Bake for 12 minutes.  Enjoy!

Method

Set oven to 375 degrees.  Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Use 1/2 a biscuit in each muffin slot to make the base of the bake.  Add a little less than 1/4 cup of the mixture to each muffin slot.  Bake for 15 minutes.  Enjoy!
