Description

These are wonderful little savory treats. Easy to make and quick to disappear!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Swiss Chard Green Leafs, Thinly Sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Curry Powder
  • 1 cup Sour Cream (heaping Cup)
  • 3 whole Large Eggs
  • 1 cup Grated Cheddar Cheese (heaping)
  • ½ cups Bread Crumbs
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder

Preparation

1. In a glass bowl (or any other microwave safe dish), combine Swiss chard, olive oil, salt and curry. Microwave for 2 minutes, until the greens wilt a bit and smell nice. Drain excess liquid.

2. In a different bowl, combine sour cream, eggs, cheese, bread crumbs and baking powder. Mix well and add the cooked greens. Mix well.

3. Divide mixture between 9 (preferably silicone) muffin pan cups or individual baking cups (oil well or line with paper cups if you are not using silicone) and bake in a 350F (about 180 Celsius) for 35 minutes.

Serve at room temperature or cold from the fridge. These should come out moist and juicy, so don’t overcook them. Next time, I plan to get myself a mini muffin pan and make miniature appetizers.

YUM.

These were wonderful! I do agree with the previous review about the saltiness, however. When I make them again, I think I’ll cut the salt down to 1/2 tsp. That being said, my husband absolutely loved them as is, so I guess it’s all just personal preference. Thanks for a great recipe!

I made these last night. I substituted non-fat greek yogurt instead of sour cream since that was all I had in the house. Mine ended up salty because I don’t think I used enough swiss chard and I used sharp cheddar instead of mild. However, I think the recipe is fantastic and super easy. Cooking the greens in the microwave is brilliant! I made them last night to serve for lunch today with the Fresh Tomato and Basil soup. I will definitely be making these again.
