This is a great casserole that I threw together one day when a friend requested Broccoli au Gratin for her birthday dinner. This is a great idea for those who aren't big fans of bread crumbs. Also, the eggs can be taken out for a great sauce and using skim milk and fat-free cheese works well, too. It's basically a great recipe that can be easily altered according to taste. Enjoy! Ingredients:
8 cups fresh broccoli |
1/2 cup butter |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 small onion, chopped |
1 1/4 cups milk |
salt and pepper to taste |
4 cups shredded swiss cheese |
2 eggs, beaten |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2. Place broccoli in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain.
3. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat and add flour; cook until bubbly. Stir in onion and gradually add milk, stirring well. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and season with salt and pepper. Stir in cheese and eggs; mix well. Combine mixture with broccoli and transfer to a 9 x 13 inch casserole dish.
4. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.
