Baked Omelet with Zucchini, Leeks, Feta and Herbs


I've had this recipe cut out for a long time now. Every once in a while I bring it out in hopes of trying it and somehow it gets put back in the folder for another time. I was looking for something different to share this month so I brought it out once more to try. This was a great dish ... we really loved it. It's a great way to sneak in veggies if you have kids. I shredded the zucchini on a box cheese grater and it worked just fine. I also used about half the amount of mint the recipe called for and skipped the dill. I served it with a salad of escarole, tomatoes, cucumber and some leftover roasted red pepper. Not a bad way to use the best of the season's veggies.

Oh no, I can barely get her to try any veggie that is why I'm always puree'ing, shredding, dicing and sneaking them in to a main dish. She is soooo picky which drives us batty because we'll try nearly anything.

Robin - I recommend reading "Child of Mine" It is about eating. It basically takes the pressure off of you in trying to force your child to eat healty.
