Ingredients:
1 cup water |
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal |
1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese |
1/4 cup grated fresh onion |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 (2-ounce) jar diced pimento, drained |
3 egg whites (at room temperature) |
1 tablespoon sugar |
roasted summer squash |
vegetable cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Combine water and cornmeal in a medium saucepan; stir well. Bring to a boil, and cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Remove from heat; stir in milk and next 7 ingredients (milk through pimento). Set cornmeal mixture aside.
2. Beat the egg whites at high speed of a mixer until foamy. Add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Gently stir one-fourth of egg white mixture into the cornmeal mixture; gently fold in the remaining egg white mixture. Fold in the Roasted Summer Squash.
3. Spoon mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 50 minutes or until set.
4. Note: Prepare the Roasted Summer Squash first.
