Low Carb Broccoli Dish

Gotta love Broccoli

Still in the high protein mood. To me this dish serves well without needing to add much of anything, so see how it goes. You can serve it perfectly well as a sidedish to pasta, potatoes or rice. With some meat, like chicken, or lamb, or just go vegetarian and see how you like that. Prep time is about 15-20 mins, so if I am rushed, this is perfect.

Serves 2-4

Broccoli: 1 big. Small rosettes, blanched

Onion: 1 chopped

Leek: (8 inches) chopped

Mushrooms: 10 chopped and grilled (optional)

White cheese (feta/salad cheese): 75 gr chopped/broken 1 inch blocks (optional)

Melt cheese (parmesan/gouda/cheddar): 75 gr grated (optional)

6 eggs

Milk/cream: 1 ½ mug

Pumpkin seeds: 1 tablesp (optional)

Cashews: 3 tablesp (optional)

Olive oil: 4 tablesp

Oregano: 1 pinch

Basil: 1 pinch

Parsley: 1 tablesp

Chives: 1 tablesp

Paprika: ½ teasp

Nutmeg: 2 knifepoints

Salt: to taste

Pepper: to taste

Blanch your broccoli while you heat your oven to 350 f/175c. Get a nice big oven dish and put in the olive oil. Get bowl where you mix your eggs with milk/cream until it is a nice creamy mix. Add all seasoning while stirring with a whisk, preferably. Add the grated cheese to that.

Put the remainder of your ingredients together, including either cashew or pumpkin seeds, in your oven dish and stir them together loosely.

The basics, although the white cheese is optional.

Pour the egg/milk concoction over it and place in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes.

And your dish is ready to serve.

Personally, I like it with a salad on the side, but that is entirely up to you, of course.

Bon appetit.
