when you got that cheese craving...:)
Baked broccoli and Two cheeses-
app 1 cup of chopped broccoli florets/stems
2 eggs
one quarter cup of chopped onions
1 cup of cottage/ricatto cheese (whole, skim, don't matter)
1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
one quarter teaspoon of salt
one half cup of fine crumbs (crackers, dried bread, bran cereal, ground nuts, etc- whatever you have)
~~~~~~~
Take the fine crumbs and mix just enough oil in them to make them sort of stick together. You don't want them "wet". Add a few drop of oil at a time until it looks right. This is easiest done in a sandwich baggie, you can squish it all together from the outside. Set it aside.
Mix the eggs, both cheeses, onion and salt together in a bowl.
Grease a small baking pan. Put half the broccoli in the bottom. Then put half the cheese mixture on top. Repeat with the rest of the broccoli and cheese mixture. Sprinkle the oiled crumbs on top. Use your fingers, doing a little at a time. Try to get them all over and even.
Bake 45 minutes at 325 degrees farenheit.
The crumb topping will cook into a nice little crust. It's delicious :D
If you're feeding more than two people you'll need to double the recipe.
This is a high protein meal. You'll need a carb with it. Big crusty buttered rolls go great :D
Peace
