thought id start this off with something i made tonight. it was super good! if you like quiche. im gonna be posting a lot of Weight Watchers recipes because that is what i follow. but hopefully you all can find some that work for your family! i only know the 'points' information. i dont have the other info (cals, fiber etc). Just know that it is 'healthy'. :)
note: i substituted spinach for broccoli and i sauteed portobello mushrooms (diced) with the onions. good!!
Paul liked this recipe a lot. we are shoving it down Fia's face so she can have yogurt. enjoy!
Ingredients | | 6 oz pie crust, 9-inch, refrigerated | | 2 tsp olive oil | | 1/2 cup(s) red onion(s), chopped | | 1 1/4 cup(s) part-skim ricotta cheese | | 1 cup(s) low-fat shredded cheddar cheese | | 1 large egg(s) | | 2 large egg white(s) | | 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard | | 1 tsp dried oregano | | 1/2 tsp table salt, or more to taste | | 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground, or more to taste | | 10 oz frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and well-drained | | 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese |
Instructions- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Press pie crust into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch, removable-bottom tart pan or a 9-inch pie pan; refrigerate until ready to use.
- To make filling, heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until soft, about 3 minutes. Transfer onion to a large bowl and add ricotta cheese, cheddar cheese, egg, egg whites, mustard, oregano, salt and pepper; mix well and fold in broccoli. Spoon mixture into prepared crust and level surface with a wooden spoon; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
- Bake until a knife inserted near center comes out clean, about 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing into 8 pieces. Yields 1 piece per serving.
Notes- Not a broccoli fan? Substitute spinach in its place.
