Method

-Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and lightly coat a 3 quart baking dish with oil.(I used my 8'' square glass pan)
-Layer first starting with spinach in the dish,followed by mushrooms & then bell peppers .
-Layer the cubed french bread over the veggies followed by the shredded cheese over the bread.Keep aside.(see pics)

-In another bowl,beat the eggs,add salt,pepper powder & milk.
-Add cilantro,green onion chopped ,green chillies,salsa to the egg mixture.
-Pour this over the shredded cheese in such a way that it reaches all sides and seeps through the bread soaking it fully.

-Place in the pre heated oven and bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
-Remove from oven,you will notice the egg is set,the cheese melts,bread is crisp on top & outer edges and soft inside.Cool it down for 5 minutes.
-Serve with salsa or pickles !!

Servings~8" square dish





NOTES 
* I wasn't having spinach in my pantry,so haven't used spinach,instead increased the green onions stalks.
* Use the green chillies and pepper powder as per your spice likes.

  15. wow! thats easy, and yes, one pot meal. and hey Julie, i did try out your eggless, butterless beetroot cake. it turned out great...but was more towards the brownie texture, as i added whole wheat. i will post it on my blog soon, and definitely will keep a link to yours for the recipe source.
