Savory Clafouti image

from fine cooking, this is a wonderful recipe to adapt to your personal tastes. this recipe is vegetarian, but you can add meats, change the type of cheese and use vegetables that you have on hand- be creative. I made this for the break fast last week end, and my guests just loved it.
