Ingredients

  • 1 Steamed Broccoli Head: fresh or frozen
  • 4 tbsp cottage cheese
  • 2 tbsp water
  • mozzarella cheese to sprinkle on top of the broccoli. Use as much as you like

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Boil or steam half of the broccoli until it's slightly tender.  Cook the other half a bit longer. Once the second half is well-cooked, blend it in a blender with 4 tablespoons of cottage cheese, 2 tablespoon of water, and adjust the salt. The consistency should be creamy.
  2. In a baking dish or ramekin, place a layer of the cottage cheese cream. Add, in a single layer, your slightly tender broccoli on top.
  3. Cover the broccoli with the creamy mixture. Sprinkle Parmesan or Mozzarela on the top.
  4. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit). Bake the gratin until it turns golden brown.

Notes

  • Keep in mind that broccoli heads vary in size. So feel free to adjust the water and cottage cheese quantity based on the size of the broccoli head and your personal preference for a thicker or thinner sauce.
