What a great way of getting kids to eat more veggies! I love side dishes like these, and a little cheese makes it even more comfort-y. Love it
Excellent recipe!! I cut it in half and made it low-fat (used I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter fat-free cheese & skim milk) and it was STILL delicious! Thanks so much!
I first made this dish last year for Christmas dinner and it became an instant hit with family. This year for Thanksgiving I put it into a smaller but deeper container to save space in the oven with the other dishes. DON’T DO IT – it was a little runny on the bottom. The flavor was still very good but for me texture is also very important in food and I feel it baked better in a shallower (9 x 13) pan than the deeper one I used this weekend.
Very good if you like swiss. I steamed the broc. in the microwave…worked out fine Scaled the recipe down to serve 4 and followed the recipe exactly. Very yummy!
The flavor was delicious especially with the swiss cheese. I used frozen flowerets to make it easier and everyone loved it. I will make this recipe again.
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 onion, chopped
1 (12-ounce) bag frozen broccoli, defrosted
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
2 eggs, beaten
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat, add in the garlic and onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sauté until onions are garlic are tender, set aside to cool. Add the broccoli to a kitchen towel. Wrap the towel around the broccoli and squeeze out the extra moisture. (That step is not as important when you use fresh broccoli, its just a way of getting all the extra moisture out of frozen broccoli, you don’t want it to be real wet) Place the drained broccoli into a large bowl, add the onion and garlic and mix gently. To the same bowl, add the panko, the cheeses, eggs, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix together and form into patties, place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip and bake for another 15 minutes or until browned and crispy.
