Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray. In 8-inch nonstick pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Cook onion, bell pepper and garlic in oil 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly softened. Add spinach, and cook about 1 minute or until starting to wilt.
• In baking dish, layer half of the baguette, 1 cup of the feta cheese, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese, the bell pepper mixture, artichokes, olives and sun-dried tomato. Layer remaining baguette, and top with remaining 1/2 cup feta cheese. In large bowl, beat eggs and milk with whisk; beat in pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Pour over bread mixture, pressing down slightly. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown and center is just set. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Place tomato slices on paper towels; let stand to drain. Meanwhile, cook and stir spinach and onions in dressing in large skillet on medium heat until onions are tender and dressing is cooked off. Remove from heat.
• Roll half the pastry into 12-inch to 12-inch square on lightly floured surface; press onto bottom and up side of 9-inch springform pan sprayed with cooking spray. Fill with layers of half each of the ham, spinach mixture, tomatoes, peppers and cheese. Repeat layers. Drizzle with all but 1 Tbsp. eggs.
• Roll remaining pastry into 11-inch square; place over ingredients in pan. Pinch edges of pastry together to seal. Brush top with reserved egg; cut slits in pastry to allow steam to escape.
• Bake 55 min. or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Heat oil in 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook onions in oil 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in tomato and basil. Cook about 1 minute, stirring occasionally, until tomato is heated through.
• Beat eggs thoroughly with fork or wire whisk; pour over tomato mixture.
• As mixture begins to set at bottom and side, gently lift cooked portions with spatula so that thin, uncooked portion can flow to bottom. Avoid constant stirring. Cook 3 to 4 minutes or until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist. Sprinkle with pepper.

Steps:

• Melt butter in skillet over medium heat; cook peppers, onions & garlic for about 12 minutes or until all liquid evaporates.
• Remove from heat & stir in spinach; set aside.
• Roll each piece of pastry to 1/8 inch thickness; use 1 piece to line a 10 inch springform pan, leaving excess draped over sides.
• Layer half the ham slices in the bottom, sprinkle half the cheese, spread half the veggies followed by the eggs.
• Repeat these layers.
• Cover with remaining pastry, trim off edges & pinch layers together; cut steam vents in the top & brush with egg glaze.
• Place pan on a rimmed baking sheet in the centre of a preheated 400F oven for 15 minutes.
• Reduce heat to 350F and bake for an additional 45 to 60 minutes or until top is golden & knife inserted in centre is hot when pulled out.
• Let cool for 15 minutes; remove pan sides & cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in the ground beef and ground lamb, chopped onion, pine nuts, cinnamon, and salt and black pepper. Cook and stir until the meat is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease.
• Stir in the lemon juice; taste and adjust the seasonings, and let the meat mixture cool.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
• Roll out the thawed pastry sheets to about 1/8-inch thickness. Using a sharp 3-inch round cookie cutter, cut out at least 9 rounds per sheet. Lightly brush the inside edges with a little water, and place about 2 teaspoons of filling into the middle of each round. Fold the pastry round in half to cover the filling and seal the edges well. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining dough circles.
• Brush each pie with a little egg wash. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
