2. Cooking Directions
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-by-12-inch baking dish or a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish. In a large bowl, combine the spinach, artichoke hearts, scallions, bread cubes, and half the mozzarella. Spread this mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with the remaining mozzarella.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Pour over the vegetables and bread and press the bread into the liquid, making sure that it's well moistened.
- Bake the bread pudding for 20 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F and bake until the pudding is puffed and browned, 15 to 20 minutes longer.
Yield: 4 servings
3. Still Hungry?
Using defrosted frozen vegetables can be a huge time-saver, since they're already cooked, but don't be in too much of a rush; you'll need to take the time to drain and dry them, or the extra moisture will make the finished dish soggy.
Notes:
Defrost frozen vegetables quickly by removing them from the package and putting them into a bowl of hot water. You may need to squeeze or blot the vegetables dry on paper towels before using them, but the defrosting will take only minutes.

Delicious ...
"r-me" - November 30, 2007 08:22:56 PM PSTI'm always looking for ways to get my three kids to eat their veggies .... you can never go wrong with cheesy veggies. This was absolutely delicious. I was surprised my daughter asked for seconds, when she's always the first one to say "yuck" to veggies! Thanks for the recipe. =)
