This slimmed-down version of a favorite brunch recipe was requested by Carla Weeks in Independence, Iowa. It's hearty, wholesome and boasts all the gourmet flavor of the original! Ingredients:
6 tablespoons reduced-fat butter, cubed |
8 cups chopped fresh broccoli |
1 cup finely chopped onion |
6 eggs, beaten |
1-1/2 cups egg substitute |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided |
1 cup fat-free milk |
1 cup half-and-half cream |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In a Dutch oven, melt butter. Add broccoli and onion; saute until crisp-tender. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, egg substitute, 1 cup cheese, milk, cream, salt and pepper. Stir in broccoli mixture. Pour into a 3-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray. 2. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Yield: 12 servings. |
