Who said nothing brilliant ever came from playing World of Warcraft?  Tonight my fellow Guildies helped me out with a domestic crisis; what to have for dinner!

I was talking (i.e. whinging) in Guild Chat that I didn’t know what we were going to do about dinner; “The cupboard is bare and I don’t want to head to Woolworths.”

A few minutes later Cromonztro tells me he’s sent me a recipe in game.  I thought he meant a WoW recipe.  No, he meant an actual recipe.

Turns out we had everything, with a few minor tweaks, that I needed to make what I called “Cromonztro’s Dalaran Delight” but is actually known as “Impossible Pie”.  It’s like a quiche without the carb and calorie loaded pastry.

When I’d gotten it ready to go in the oven I sent my Guildies a little preview.

It came out of the oven golden and perfect.  HUBBY was so impressed that I’d managed to whip up dinner without him knowing, or without having to send him into Woolworths.  It tastes awesome and it’s so filling, even if you’re not missing 80% of you stomach.

For those of you that want to try it out at home here’s the details:

Ingredients

6 x Eggs

1 Cup Milk

1/2 Cup Flour – sifted

1/2 Cup Grated Cheese

Handful of Bacon Bits or Cooked Chicken (I used diced ham as we had no bacon or chicken)

1/2 Diced Onion (We didn’t have an onion so I just skipped this bit)

1 Sliced Tomato (We only had about 10 grape tomatoes so I just halved them and used that instead)

Directions

Combine Eggs, Milk and Flour and mix well.

Add cheese and mix well.

Add bacon/chicken/ham and onion and mix well.

Pour into a well greased tin. (I used a slice tin and just doused it in cooking spray)

Place tomato slices on top.  Be careful not to let them sink too far, they should “float” just don’t jiggle the pan too much.

Bake for 40 minutes in a 180 degree Celsius oven.  (I baked at 160 in a fan forced oven.)

Can be eaten hot or cold and served with green salad.

Serves 6. (Or 4 hungry people!)

Thanks to Rainie and Cro for the awesome dinner!
