BROCCOLI PUDDING
1 1/2c cooked broccoli, drained
1TBL butter, melted
1/2 tsp crushed dried oregano
1/8 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 tsp Salt-Free Herbal Seasoning (recipe follows)*
1/3c oat bran or what germs or a combination
4 eggs
2c milk
Lightly butter or coat with nonstick coking spray a 1qt baking dish
Preheat over to 325F. Place a pan of water large enough to hold the 1qt dish in the oven. Allow it to heat while preparing the pudding.
In a food processor, using the metal blade, finely chop the broccoli. Add the butter, seasonings, and oat brand or wheat germ. Blend to combine ingredients. Add the eggs and run the machine for 8 seconds, scraping down the sides as needed. With the machine running, pour 1 cup of milk through the feed tube and continue blending 3 more seconds.
Pour the broccoli mixture into the prepared baking dish. Return the bowl and blade to the food processor base and add the remaining milk. Turn the machine on and off twice (this will mix the milk with the particles of the batter that cling to the bowl and blade. It also contributes to the formation of the tasty pudding layer). Pour over the mixture in the baking dish and still gently until well mixed.
Carefully place the baking dish in the preheated water bath and bake for 60 minutes or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Makes 6 servings.
