Hi readers! As you know, I'm on vacation (heading to Houston from Little Rock today!), so Lindsey from The Accidental Wallflower was awesome enough to stop by and share a recipe with you guys (and seriously, go check out her blog -- she's one of my faves!). -Alex
Hello GGGW readers! My name's Lindsey and I usually blog over at The Accidental Wallflower. I blog about everything from my everyday life to money saving tips to crafts. I have a lot of fun with TAW and I'd love for you to check it out!
With Alex being out of town, she asked me to put together a guest post for her. Today I'm going to share a new recipe I recently tried out, my Broccoli Sausage Casserole. This casserole is a variation of my Zucchini Casserole, which I adapted from another blogger's recipe. And if you're a parent, you'll be happy to know my one and a half year old son loved this meal. And he's kind of a picky eater, so that's saying something!
Here's what you'll need to make the casserole, which I usually serve as my main dish, but it'd work just as well on the side in smaller portions.
Broccoli Sausage Casserole
Serves 2-3
Ingredients
- 12 ounces broccoli florettes
- 8 ounces sausage, cut into quarter inch pieces (I used chicken sausage)
- 3/4 onion, chopped
- 8 ounces mushrooms, chopped
- 6 ounces fat free Greek yogurt
- 1/3 + 1/4 cup reduced fat shredded cheese (both cheddar and mozzarella work well)
- 2 tablespoons freeze dried garlic (fresh would also work)
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- Pinch of breadcrumbs (unpictured)
- PAM spray
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Combine onion, sausage, garlic and oregano in a skillet sprayed with PAM, cook until onions are soft, approx. 10-15 minutes on medium heat
- While onions are cooking, steam broccoli (mine steamed in the microwave for 3 minutes)
- When onions are soft, add mushrooms and steamed broccoli to skillet, cook for an additional 5 minutes
- Remove from heat and stir in Greek yogurt and 1/3 cup shredded cheese
- Spoon broccoli mixture into glass baking dish and top with breadcrumbs and 1/4 cup shredded cheese
- Bake for 25 minutes
Enjoy!
