Spaghetti Muffins

JustJanS's Note:

Jewelies made these yesterday while our friend Wendy was visiting. Wendy made them this morning for brunch. They were yummy and I'm thinking would make great kids food (a lot tidier than watching a littly eat canned spaghetti!) Wendy added in chopped bacon and we all reckon onion and/or capsicum would be good in there too. The texture is more like an omelette than an actual muffin.

If you like pickled gherkins try adding two, I zap mine in the food processor first. And up the cheese an extra 1/2 a cup (I use parmesan for the extra). This was Ruby's idea as she has decided she loves gherkins and now I will always make them like this! Yum! Also Baked Beans turn out great too.

What an easy and tasty recipe!
I thought I had cheese left, but did not have the full quantity needed so I added some parmesan as well. I must admit this recipe would lend itself to all kinds of added ingredients, next time I might add some ham............yummy!
I made these about 2 hours ago, and have already eaten over half, I know I don't need more, but I cant stop myself........................They are so YUMMY!
Thanks for sharing Jan.

have made these a few times now. I added 3/4 cup SR flour, and sprinkled the top with cooked bacon. wonderful! the flour helps keep the shape, and stops them from sticking too much. I am looking forward to trying others things too, like a little curry powder? thanks Jan
