When Your Kids Won't Eat Spinach

Really truly they will like this. I won't say I promise, but I will say that most anyone in the world loves this. It's devoured at potlucks by kids of all ages...even ones that don't like veggies. When I made this for my family, I always made a huge tray....the kids ate most of it. Even though they are grown, they always fight for more when I fix it these days. When Starla was about 3, she ate half of the tray all by herself. And now her son follows in her footsteps. It's that good.

3 eggs
6TB of flour. I often use gluten free or rice/oat mix.
A couple of pounds of washed spinach
1 1/2c cottage cheese (small curd is best)
Cheddar cheese....I use about two cups
Wheat germ (optional)
Tamari/Soy Sauce (if you are gluten free, be sure to check if it's wheat free)

Great for a food processor. Chop up spinach. You will have to do this in batches. When done chopping, put eggs and flour in then whiz until blended. Add cottage cheese, but only spin until it is mixed (about two seconds) because you don't want the cheese to get chopped, too. Put in spinach again and mix. Turn into a bowl. Then shred the cheese in the processor. Mix about 2/3 of it with the spinach mix. Put in dish pan 9"x 14." Put on remainging cheese. Top with wheat germ if you want a crustier top. Bake at 350. Check at 45 minutes, but it will probably take longer. It's done when it's golden brown on top and the middle is set. Sprinkle as desired with Soy Sauce at the table.

Oh boy...yum...see kids scarf. And they don't even know it's healthy. Protein, vitamins don't matter cuz it's just plain good.

Informative Commercial Break....

Sometimes kids need help knowing what's good for them, whether it's eating vegetables or teaching them about kids online safety. From predators to dangerous sites that compromise computer security, get more tips on helping your children navigate the internet online.
