Throwback Thursday, Spring Galette
One of my favorite parts of Spring
is the overflowing abundance of fresh vegetables
Fresh everything!
This galette can be filled with any combination that you can think of,
I kept this one green with asparagus and spinach
Simple to make, a side or a meal, and loaded with veggie goodness
Caramelize the onion, wilt spinach into onion, and add garlic
Add cheeses and stir to melt
Add a dash of cream to thin out mixture a little,
and mix in bacon if desired
Place the crust in a shallow baking dish,
fill with vegetable mixture and fold sides over
Bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes until golden
Can be made ahead and refrigerated before baking if desired

I just checked out your Spring Has Come Puff Pie. New Jersey asparagus hasn’t happened just yet but when it does, I will be making your delicious recipe.
Thank you Bernadette, I love asparagus, such a versatile vegetable!
I love asparagus! This is a beautiful and delicious galette, Jenna.
I love asparagus too, thank you Angie!
Love this beautiful veggie galette Jenna. We are lucky to have an abundance of spring vegetables early in the season.
Thanks Emily, I buy asparagus year round, it’s my favorite vegetable~
Love a dish full of spring veggies! I haven’t done a gallette with them, what a great idea. I usually do a quick saute of mixed freshness with a little goat cheese, or a quiche.
Thanks Carole, I love to make galettes, so easy!
I’m making this one for sure, Jenna. All my favorites in one dish! I’ve never made a galette and this looks like the perfect one on which to begin. Thanks!
Oh Jeanie, galettes are so easy to make, and a great way to use up a little this and that too!
I do love galettes no matter the ingredients. I like the idea of loading with veggies.
I do too Linda, endless possibilities!
Beautiful spring flavors!
Thank you Dorothy!
Yummy! Your talents amaze me.
Aw, thank you Sarah!
Yum that looks wonderful!
Thank you Carol!
I needed to see this today. Our temps went from from low 70’s yesterday to freezing by morning and cold and windy the rest of today. I think it is the sudden change that makes it so hard. So spring vegetables are a welcome sight.
Oh Linda, so sorry! We have had very warm temps this week and things are starting to bloom all over, fingers crossed we don’t have a late freeze 🤞
Looks so good Jenna….now I want to get in the vegetable garden and the kitchen.
Yum

Oh wow, sometime that I will have to give a go. I have thus pinned it as reference. Visiting from THE HOUSE ON SILVERADO. I would love to know if you may be interested to come and participate and also share your awesome posts at Senior Salon Pit Stop, Monday through Saturday. I would love to see you tomorrow or through the week.
Thanks so much!
Looks like a yummy recipe. Anything with cream cheese is a winner. A vegetable medley.
