Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head broccoli, cut into medium florets
  • 1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for sautéing)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/3 cups (315 ml) milk of choice
  • 3/4 cup (94 g) flour of choice
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/3 cup (20 g) fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 cup (112 g) shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add cauliflower and bring back to a boil. Cook for 7 minutes, then add broccoli and cook for another 2 minutes until just fork-tender. Drain thoroughly.
  2. In a small pan, sauté diced onion in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat for 3 minutes until translucent.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Add broccoli, cauliflower, onion, and bell pepper to a 9×13 inch baking dish. Spread evenly and season with salt and pepper.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and 5 tablespoons olive oil. Add milk and whisk until smooth.
  5. Mix in flour, Parmesan cheese, paprika, and garlic powder until smooth with no lumps. Stir in chopped parsley.
  6. Pour custard mixture evenly over vegetables in the baking dish. Gently shake to distribute.
  7. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown on top and set in the center.
  9. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can use any flour: almond flour, oat flour, or gluten-free all-purpose flour.
  • Any milk works: dairy, almond, oat, or soy milk.
  • Add cooked diced chicken for extra protein.
  • Use any vegetables you have: mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach work well.
  • The base should be meaty vegetables like broccoli or cauliflower for structure.
