Nutrient dense 'polka dot' veggie quiche 
- grain, dairy, nut free!

You wont catch bread in my child's lunch box but you will see this! Vegetable quiche and she scoffs every single scrap! Lots of nutrients, no additives, quality meal and easy to make and most of all, she's not even interested in boring sandwiches :)

1 stalk celery
2 mdm carrots
2 broccoli stems (these are often wasted but they have so much goodness)
1 zucchini
3 brussel sprouts (halved)
2 handful of kale leaves
1/2 onion
1 garlic

1. All vegetables should be washed and ends trimmed before use. 
2. Add all vegetables to the TM or FP bowl and blitz on speed 7 for 5 seconds.  Blitz again if not of grated consistency. Once you have reached that consistency, use the reverse function so not to mush the mix up further. 

1/2 tsp home made curry powder
1 tblsp TM vegetable stock
7 eggs

3. Mix again on speed 5, reverse, for 10 seconds or until mixed thoroughly.
4. Pour mix into a lined baking tray.

1 sml sweet potato

5. Peel and slice into slices of about 1/2 cm in thickness and place slices ontop of quiche, in the tray.
6. Bake for 1 hour or until cooked.  Cooking time will vary between ovens etc.
7. Allow to cool and then cut into squares and freeze in glass containers, using baking paper to seperate.
8. Pull out of freezer the night before and wallah!!
