Broccoli White Cheddar Pie- Healthy Recipes

 

Broccoli is high in vitamin C and dietary fiber; it also contains multiple nutrients with potent anti-cancer properties, such as diindolylmethane and small amounts of selenium. A single serving provides more than 30 mg of vitamin C and a half-cup provides 52 mg of vitamin C. The 3,3'-Diindolylmethane found in broccoli is a potent modulator of the innate immune response system with anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-cancer activity. Broccoli also contains the compound glucoraphanin, which can be processed into an anti-cancer compound sulforaphane, though the anti-cancer benefits of broccoli are greatly reduced if the vegetable is boiled. Broccoli is also an excellent source of indole-3-carbinol, a chemical which boosts DNA repair in cells and appears to block the growth of cancer cells.

Boiling broccoli reduces the levels of suspected anti-carcinogenic compounds, such as sulforaphane, with losses of 20–30% after five minutes, 40–50% after ten minutes, and 77% after thirty minutes. However, other preparation methods such as steaming, microwaving, and stir frying had no significant effect on the compounds. Use 2-Tiered 6-quart capacity steamer that creates instant steam for preparing all kinds of food like Oster Food Steamer.

Serves 8

INGREDIENTS:

2 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped onion
4 cups broccoli florets
½ cup mayonnaise
1 can Campbell's Condensed Cream of Celery Soup
2 cups grated sharp white cheddar cheese
½ cup dry breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons butter, melted


PROCEDURE:

1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

2) Coat a 1½-quart casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.

3) Melt the butter in a 10-inch sauté pan over medium heat and cook the onion, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes.

4) Add the broccoli, cover the sauté pan, and cook the broccoli until it is crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool.

5) In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, soup, and cheese. Stir in the broccoli mixture. Pour the contents of the bowl into the prepared casserole dish.

6) In a small mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and melted butter and sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top of the casserole.
