CAULIFLOWER & SPINACH GRATIN

Two of my girlfriends came over last-minute for dinner the other day, both on vegetarian and gluten free diets. I admit they caught me off guard, so I kind of threw some things together. I had a head of cauliflower, some frozen spinach and a bunch of leftover cheese. I turned these basic ingredients into a gratin, which turned out to be excellent and easy to make, so I had to share it with you (with a few adjustments).

Main ingredients

1. • 1 onion, cut in half and sliced
2. • 1 tablespoon olive oil
3. • 3 eggs
4. • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese + a little extra to top the gratin
5. • ¾ cup feta cheese, chopped
6. • ¾ cup of cottage cheese
7. • 10 oz. (275 grams) frozen spinach, defrosted
8. • Salt and pepper
9. • ½ head of cauliflower, cut into smaller florets

Garnish Ingredients

1. • Chopped chives
2. • Shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. 1. Sauté the onions on a pan over medium-high heat until browned. Set aside.
2. 2. Whisk the eggs in a bowl, and then mix in the shredded cheese, feta cheese, cottage cheese, salt and pepper.
3. 3. Mix in the spinach and sautéed onions, and pour the mixture into a baking pan (I used a 10-inch [25 cm] quiche pan).
4. 4. Place the florets, stalks down, into the egg mixture until you have covered the surface with cauliflower. Sprinkle a little extra cheese on the top and bake it in the oven at 350°F (275°C) for about 40 min. or until the surface is browned and the egg mixture is cooked.
5. 5. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and garnish with chives.
