Savory Mushroom and Spinach Blintzes - A Delicious Vegetarian Delight!
Looking for a delicious vegetarian dish that's perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner? Look no further than these savory mushroom and spinach blintzes! Made with a delicious blend of fresh mushrooms, spinach, and creamy ricotta cheese, these blintzes are sure to satisfy even the most discerning of palates.
To make these delicious blintzes, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped mushrooms
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil, for cooking
To start, whisk together the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.
Next, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of olive oil to the pan, and then pour in a small amount of the batter, swirling the pan to coat the bottom evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges start to curl up and the bottom is lightly browned. Flip the blintz over and cook for an additional 30 seconds, then remove from the pan and set aside.
Repeat this process until all of the batter has been used up, stacking the blintzes on top of each other as you go.
To make the filling, heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they start to release their juices. Add the spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until wilted. Remove from heat and stir in the ricotta cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
To assemble the blintzes, spoon a small amount of the filling onto each blintz and roll up tightly. Place the blintzes seam-side down on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
These savory mushroom and spinach blintzes are the perfect combination of creamy, savory, and satisfying. They're a great way to start your day or to enjoy as a light dinner. So why not give them a try today?
