Crustless Broccoli And Cottage Cheese

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Made adjustments as follows:

    used the 2 cups of broccoli asked for, but cut the rest of the ingredients buy using only 2/3 of what's called for 2 eggs, 1 c cottage cheese, etc. Also substituted cheddar instead of jack since I think it looks and tastes better.

    I didn't the crust part of recipe and left out the butter.

    I put it in a small casserole dish. Please see photo of result.

    Crustless Broccoli and Cottage Cheese Pie, My second entry into the broccoli quiche category…this one is from Vegetarian Pleasures. Breadcrumbs in recipes always confuse me, I’m not sure what I’m being asked for. In this one, you want to make a slice or two of toast, let it them cool, and give a buzz in the food processer. This can be made up to 8 hours in advance-cover and chill the crust and filling separtely. Have not done that, so I could only guess how you might need to adjust the baking time; maybe another 15 minutes? I don’t know why it’s called crustless, it has a crust, just a thin one. Anyway, it’s yummy. I’ve had no problem using lowfat/non-fat milk and cottage cheese. I never use the cayenne pepper, because Mr. B. does not like even a touch of heat, so I don’t know how that tastes in there. Hope you enjoy!, Made adjustments as follows: used the 2 cups of broccoli asked for, but cut the rest of the ingredients buy using only 2/3 of what’s called for 2 eggs, 1 c cottage cheese, etc. Also substituted cheddar instead of jack since I think it looks and tastes better.
