Impossible Pie

Ingredients
At least 4 serves (more if you add a little salad)
4 eggs
2 cups milk
½ cup plain flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
125g margarine (melted)
Pasta (small pasta eg. swirls, macaroni etc)
See variation below for the other ingredients
Cheese

Method
  1. Cook pasta (follow packet instructions)
  2. Wisk eggs, milk then add melted margarine
  3. Add flour and baking powder to wet mixture
  4. Add one of the variations
  5. Spread pasta in the bottom of a greased large dish then pour all mixture on top.
  6. Sprinkle grated cheese on top
  7. Bake in the oven until firm and cheese is golden brown

 Variations
  • Corn and asparagus - medium sized can of drained corn and a can of asparagus, drained and cut into pieces
  • Tuna - large can of tuna drained and medium sized can of corn drained (corn can also be added)
  • Silverbeat/spinach - sliced into small pieces then dunked into boiling water to make it limp
  • Bacon and tomato - cut bacon into small pieces, ensure there is not too much liquid in the tomato
Not sure where this recipe came from but it was always cooked at home (at least once a week). There is almost always left-overs to be reheated for the next night as it makes heaps. The reason that we called it impossible pie is because it is impossible to get wrong.

If you know more variations please write them below.
