MUSHROOM AND SPINACH TART WITH CRACKER CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, flax seeds, poppy seeds, and salt in a medium bowl. Rub in olive oil. Add enough water to make a pliable dough.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface and press into an 11-inch tart pan. Poke holes all over with a fork.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the surface of the crust looks dry, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add spinach and cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and cool until easily handled; squeeze out all water and chop.
• Heat oil in a large skillet and fry onion for 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and continue sauteeing until tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Mix in spinach, sour cream, feta cheese, egg, marjoram, salt, and pepper. Spread the filling over the prebaked tart crust.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake tart until the center is set, about 50 minutes.

EASY SPINACH AND MUSHROOM TART (SIDE DISH)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 deg F/160 deg Celsius.
• Grease a tart plate with butter.
• Tear up or cut up the spinach roughly, and put into a mixing bowl.
• Add the chopped mushrooms and onion to the spinach.
• Whisk the eggs in another bowl, and add the yoghurt, seasoning salt, Tabasco and garlic. Whisk well. Add to the spinach mixture.
• Mix through well with a spatula, wooden spoon, or your hands!
• Pat the whole lot into the greased tart plate. Use your hands to flatten it a little -- it should fit well into an ordinary-size tart pan or plate.
• Drizzle over the olive oil, and then sprinkle with the dried breadcrumbs. Bake for 45 minutes, or until slightly puffed up and set.
• * If you want, change the seasonings, or add more salt than suggested, as seasoning salt alone might not be enough. Nutmeg can also be added to the wet mixture.
