Not Your Mama's Popovers (if your Mama could cook, that is)

If you are desperately looking for something to cook for supper and your cupboard looks like this...

and you don't want a meal consisting of plain noodles or plain rice (or noodles or rice with grape jelly on them) and you think to yourself, "Self, remember when you used to make popovers and make a filling? That was delicious! Why don't you do that any more?"
It is at this time that you might spontaneously decide to start making popovers for supper.
You might think, "All that they are made of is eggs, milk, flour... we have everything!"
But then you might start cooking and realize that you don't have regular milk, you only have almond milk. You'll probably decide that this will work fine. And then, once all of the eggs and milk are beaten together and it has gone to far to turn back, you might realize that you only have wheat flour. You'll continue on, not wanting to waste all those eggs and milk. And then you might remember that the reason you quit making popovers was that your popover pan broke and all you have is a muffin tin. You'll convince yourself they are pretty much the same thing. But they aren't. And then, your popovers will turn out looking something like this:
Little, eggy, hockey pucks. Which, I might add, are very difficult to fill with the truly delicious creamed vegetable mixture you made. So you'll have to slop it all on top and hope it hides what your children might dubiously refer to as "muffins."
Theoretically speaking, of course.
