Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place potatoes, onions & filtered water in roasting pan. Remove innards from chicken and place the chicken breast side down atop the bed of onions and potatoes. Season with salt and herbs. Roast in a 400 degree oven for 1 hour, turn the chicken breast up and roast for 30 to 45 minutes more until done. Remove and let stand for 30 minutes.

Ingredients
- 1 ½ to 2 Cups cooked organic rice (try Lundberg Organic Wild Blend)
- 1 medium organic onion, diced
- 3 Tbsp. Pastured butter
- 2 cups organic baby spinach, blanched
- 4 pastured eggs
- 1 ½ to 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
- 1 cup organic raw milk
- 1 cup organic raw cream
- 1 Tbsp. Einkorn flour, OR use arrowroot for Grain Free
- 1 tsp. Celtic Sea Salt
- 1 tsp. Ground white pepper
Preheat oven to 325F and prepare glass or ceramic pie plate by greasing liberally with coconut oil. Sautee onion in butter just until soft.
Press cooked rice into prepared pie plate to make a “crust”, about ½ inch deep. Cover rice crust with sauteed onions, half of the cheese, and half of the blanched spinach.
In a large bowl, beat eggs. Whisk in milk, cream, salt, pepper, flour (or arrowroot). Pour over rice crust and cover top with remaining cheese and spinach. Recipe can be varied by adding cooked bacon or sausage, or other veggies.
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Let it cool for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
