Broccoli Cauliflower Kugel with Zucchini Variation<\/h2>\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n
\n
1<\/span> tbsp<\/span> avocado oil or olive oil<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> <\/span> large onion, chopped<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> <\/span> (24-oz) bag frozen broccoli<\/span><\/div>\n
1<\/span> <\/span> (24-oz) bag frozen cauliflower<\/span><\/div>\n
6<\/span> oz<\/span> sliced mushrooms or 1 cup shredded carrots (optional). I suggest mushrooms or carrots, not both.<\/span><\/div>\n
2<\/span> tsp<\/span> sea salt<\/span><\/div>\n
½<\/span> tsp<\/span> black pepper (optional)<\/span><\/div>\n
¼<\/span> cup<\/span> Creamy Caesar Dressing >> can substitute Homemade Mayo or store-bought.<\/span><\/div>\n
4<\/span> <\/span> whole eggs, lightly beaten<\/span><\/div>\n
⅓<\/span> cup<\/span> Rorie\u2019s Coating Crumbs<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Directions<\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n

Preheat oven to 425\u00b0F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
\nCoat a casserole or kugel pan with cooking spray or oil.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

In a skillet, heat oil; add onion. Saut\u00e9 until translucent, 10\u201315 minutes. Add mushrooms, if using; saut\u00e9 until browned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Place broccoli and cauliflower on prepared baking sheets. Roast for 20 minutes or until lightly cooked and most of the water has evaporated. Remove from oven; allow to cool.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

For a chunkier version as shown in the photo on facing page, cut cooled veggies into smaller chunks. For a creamier kugel, place 1\/3 of the veggies at a time into a food processor fitted with the S-blade; pulse to desired texture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

In a large bowl, combine veggies with saut\u00e9ed onions. Add raw shredded carrots, if using. Stir in spices, dressing, and eggs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish. Top with crumbs, if using. Reduce oven temperature to 375\u00b0F. Bake for 45\u201355 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Variation: Zucchini Kugel<\/div>\n
\n
\n

This method works beautifully with zucchini, as well.<\/p>\n

Replace the broccoli and cauliflower with<\/p>\n

4 large zucchini or 5 medium zucchinis, shredded. Place into a colander over a bowl or sink; sprinkle with 1\u20442 teaspoon sea salt. Rest for about 20 minutes, then press out as much liquid as possible. Continue with steps 5\u20136, reducing the salt to 1 teaspoon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5100,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cooked_recipe\/5104"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cooked_recipe"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cp_recipe"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5104"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5100"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fullnfree.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
