\"Your
Your Dysfunctional Chef, Janice Taylor invites you to eat healthy, feel sated, push away from the table \ud83d\ude42<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Greetings One n’ All,\u00a0 I spent all day yesterday; yes, every second of the day (no exaggeration), researching, perusing and deciding on what appetizer to make for tonight’s potluck dinner.\u00a0 There are five of us bringing a variety of dishes.\u00a0 I was assigned appetizer\/hors d’oeuvres.\u00a0 I have my own criteria when cooking.\u00a0 Simple. Easy. Simple. Healthy. Simple. Tasty. Simple. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Anyway, I zeroed in on and decided to go with my (slow cooker) Spinach Spoon Bread that has on occasion brought forth orgasmic sounds.\u00a0 Yes, I used the “o” word!<\/p>\n

Again, I do love my slow cooker.\u00a0 The dish was mixed and poured into the slow cooker at 7:30 a.m.\u00a0 My work is done for the day!\u00a0 I am singing a happy, healthy and tasty tune.<\/p>\n

Here is the Spinach Spoon Bread Recipe<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/p>\n

1 (10 oz) box of chopped spinach, thawed and drained of liquid
\n1 bunch of scallions (5 or 6 in the bunch) sliced real thin
\n4 small sweet peppers, red and yellow, chopped minus the seeds, of course (You can substitute one red bell pepper if you must.\u00a0 If you like.)
\n1 cup (8 oz) cottage cheese (2% or 4%…sometimes I go full fat, what the heck)
\n4 eggs, lightly beaten
\n1\/4 cup melted butter
\n1 teaspoon salt (I get this loose designer salt at the food coop.\u00a0 It’s top end and I really do think it makes a difference.\u00a0 Go ahead…splurge)
\n1 package corn bread mix, approx. 6 oz. (I go for the organic corn bread mix.\u00a0 Again, the best ingredients make a world of difference.)<\/p>\n

Instructions:
\nPut all ingredients in a bowl and mix!
\nSpray slow cooker with non-stick spray.
\nPour ingredients into slow cooker.
\nCook on low for 3.5 hours<\/p>\n

When done, carefully place the spinach spoon bread dish on a platter and garnish with sweet peppers, jalapeno stuffed olives.\u00a0 Use your imagination.\u00a0 Go colorful.\u00a0 Go wild!\u00a0 Take a photo and post in the Kick in the Tush Club\/FB<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Spread the word\u2013NOT the icing!
