Spruce Up Recipe for March

Spruce Up your insides with this home created Tortilla stack.....bit like a fritatta but without the potato.

Ingredients
Pumpkin (cut about 0.5cm thick and steam)
Chilli (red) (finely chopped
Garlic
Red Capsicum (Thinly sliced and fry in pan with garlic and oil, on high to char grill a little)
Pesto Paste
Spinach (baby)
Ricotta (not tub but the more set one)
Finely grated strong Parmesan cheese
Eggs 3-4
Chives (finely chopped)
Tortilla wraps (whatever size suits your fry pan)

Need a reasonably deep fry pan.  Line with baking paper.  Spray with light oil

Lay first tortilla on bottom
Place steamed pumpkin and drizzled finely chopped chilli
Sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese
S& P to taste

Lay second tortilla
** spread pesto paste on top of the second tortilla layer (be generous)
Place ricotta and spinach
S&P to taste

Lay third tortilla
Place char grilled capsicum and sprinkle a little chilli on
Sprinkle a little Parmesan cheese.
S&P to taste

Lay final tortilla on top
Mix egg and chives together (say about 3-4 eggs) and mix in Parmesan cheese. Pour gently over mix to allow it to flow to other layers, but not making it like a quiche.

Cook on low heat with lid to assist cooking process - will probably take between 30-45 mins.  Once most of it has cooked through put under low grill to cook top through a little more. 

Let it sit over night and serve cold or warmed.

Good luck and let me know how you go
Sandy
