This broccoli casserole isn’t Paleo, but it is grain, gluten, wheat and sugar free so to me, it’s the perfect splurge, not to mention, I just love it. It’s what my grandma Alice use to make when I was little and have had it every year ever since, with a little bit of modification. Here’s what you need:
- about 6 cups of broccoli
- 3/4 cup Greek yogurt (2% Fage or Whole Foods)
- 1/3 cup mayo (Olive Oil Spectrum from Whole Foods)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 1/2 tsp celtic sea salt
- 1/8 pepper
- 1 cup cheese (Trader Joe’s no rBST) , 1/2 cup for the top
What to do:
1. Bring a pot of water (filled about 2 inches with water) to a boil.
2. Add broccoli and cover so it can steam for about 8-10 minutes.
3. Strain the broccoli and mix with the ingredients above.
4. Pour into glass 8×8 dish, add the rest of the cheese on top, and cook on 350 for 25 minutes.
5. Turn to broil and let cook for 5 more so the cheese can brown.
I hope y’all enjoy this as much as I do!
For the rest of the meal, I’m going to do “fried” okra, my cauliflour mash, roasted brussel sprouts, green beans (from yesterdays’s post), 1 Big Green Egg grilled turkey, 1 slow cooked turkey, a chocolate pie, and some sugar cookies. Check back tomorrow for these recipes!
Carol Vacca - What kind of cheese? Shredded? Cheddar? Including this on my Thanksgiving menu! Thank you for sharing!
landriav - Oh sorry, I just saw this!! We use a sharp cheddar but you can use whatever you like. I hope it turned out!!
keile green - All you state is Greek. What did you omit? Feta? Please clarify.
landriav - Ah sorry Keile, great yogurt! No sure what I omitted? I rarely do dairy so for me, if i omitted anything it would have been a cheese but for this recipe, I think I included it all. Hope that helps some.
