Ingredients

 10 x long/torpedo rolls, preferably wholemeal or multigrain

 5 eggs

 2 large minced garlic cloves

 2 tsp pepper

 1 tsp paprika

 1 cup reduced-fat ricotta

 2 cups reduced-fat cheddar cheese, grated

 250 g chopped spinach, fresh or frozen and defrosted

Method

1

Preheat oven to 200°C.

2

Cut a channel in the top of each roll; scoop a small amount of bread centre out.

3

In medium mixing bowl, mix eggs with garlic and spices.

4

Stir in cheeses and spinach.

5

Spoon mixture evenly into rolls.

6

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden on top.

7

Serve warm.

Variations

  • You can change the flavour and add colour by swapping ½ a cup of the spinach for ½ a cup of corn kernels or diced red capsicum.
  • Make mini versions with smaller dinner rolls for a hot recess snack in winter. If you use dinner rolls it will make 2.5x the quantity you select.

Tips

  • When baked, pop in your pie warmer or very low oven to keep warm.
  • Bake the rolls as soon as they’re filled so you don’t end up with a soggy crust.
