On the day before shopping day, when the fridge is looking a little bare, save for various odds and sods, there is still culinary magic to be made. Dig out your leftovers, add some milk, eggs and cheese, and hey presto – impossible pie is served!

You can add any variation of flavours you like, so use your imagination.

 

Start with:

2 cups milk
4 eggs
90g butter, melted
1/2 cup plain flour
1 cup grated tasty cheese

2 spring  onions, chopped
1 tbsp chopped parsley

Then add: 

1/2 cup chopped ham/chicken or similar
1/2 cup leafy greens, fresh or frozen (thaw if using frozen)
1/2 cup chopped capsicum/mushrooms/courgettes

To serve:

Add a side salad

Method:

Preheat your oven to oven 180°C and lightly grease a deep, 25cm pie plate.

In a large jug, whisk together milk, eggs and butter; season to taste. Sift the flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and gradually whisk in milk mixture.

Mix in 1/2 cup cheese, protein, greens, other veges, spring onion and parsley.

Spoon mixture into prepared pie plate. Sprinkle with remaining grated cheese; bake 45-50 minutes, until firm. Serve in wedges with salad.
