I originally got this recipe from Real Simple Magazine, and even made it the original way a couple times, it’s a real hit as is, but for some reason I tweaked it, can’t remember why, but wow I haven’t looked back, it’s a real winner, and there are times that I make it every week. It’s a must whenever I have any baked ham leftovers, that’s for sure
I once tweeked this basic recipe with leftover chow mein, into muffins and it was good also

Инструкции

  1. preheat oven to 350. Combine zucchini, onion, leftovers( use whatever leftovers you have, i’ve been known to use cold chow mein, dried out spagetti, smokies, just use at least 1½ cups zucchini or carrots for the moisture content), cheese in a large bowl, Add flour and baking powder, mix these up before adding the egg and veg oil. It will be thick and gloppy, don’t worry that’s what you want. Your going to think “it’s too thick” but trust me, that’s what you want. Use an ice-cream scoop to fill the muffin tray. Once the mix is in the muffin tray, smoosh it down with your fingers, or a spoon – but make sure the mix doesn’t go over the tray, don’t even be tempted, it should be flat with the tray. If you have extra just throw it in the freezer in sandwich bag. If you overfill, they will turn out soggy and uncooked in the center. It is important that a silicon pan is used otherwise they will be difficult to remove. They brown up nicer with a silicon pan. If you want to make it into a pie, just make sure the glass pie plate is well greased. Bake for 45-50 min if in a pie plate, If making muffins it depends what’s in it, everytime I make them the time is different about 55 min. I like them well browned. Let cool for about 10-25 min. Just because they might be soggy if eaten right away. Let them cool to set. I put these in a freezer bag to store in the fridge, If you are lucky and they last more than a day they actually taste better because the flavor has a change to meld. I have made these in mini muffins for the smaller kids, but I think the regular muffins are better, because the smaller ones don’t get a chance to absord all the flavour.
