- 2 eggs
- 1 Tbsp milk
- 1 c bread crumbs
- ¼ c sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F

- In a medium bowl, beat eggs with milk. Place chopped broccoli in bowl and toss to coat broccoli in egg mixture.
- In a different bowl mix together bread crumbs, cheese, and spices.
- Dip egg-coated broccoli in the bread crumb mixture, pressing firmly to get the coating to stick to the broccoli.
