Mini Vegetable Kugels

These are from a cookbook Susie Marcus once gave us.  They are very cute, which I think adds to their appeal, as does the fact they each have a nice crust.  The pans need to be VERY WELL OILED or they don't come out.  [or use silicon bake pans.] You could use other vegetables.  Now that chestnuts are around, Kosher for Passover, they are a nice addition.
Like all recipes calling for frozen spinach, thaw it in advance.

6 T. margarine
1 c. chopped onion
½ c. chopped celery
1½ c. grated raw carrot
10 oz. frozen spinach (thawed)
2 eggs, beaten
1½ t salt
dash pepper
½ c. matzah meal - if you're out of matzah meal, just take matzah and run it through the food processor.  Texture is fine for this purpose.  (if it's not passover, probably plain old WW flour)

Saute onion, celery, and carrot in margarine in a large frying pan.
Add thawed spinach.
Add eggs, salt, pepper and matzah meal.
Spoon into a well-greased muffin tin, yielding 12 muffins.  Or skip that altogether and just put it in a WELL GREASED flat pan.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes.

Cool a few minutes before removing them.
