Meatless Monday – Betsy’s Broccoli Bread

Posted by on Monday, November 7th, 2011


Here’s one of my all time favorite recipes from a former high school peep – Betsy. This cornbread is made with Jiffy Cornbread Mix and frozen broccoli. It makes a hearty serving and could easily compliment a light soup to make a well rounded meal.

2 Boxes Jiffy Cornbread Mix
1 12 oz carton small curd cottage cheese
4 eggs – beaten
2 sticks melted butter
10 oz chopped frozen broccoli florets (I like to chop the frozen florets a little finer after removing from the package)
1 samll onion – chopped

In a large bowl combine the cornbread mix, cottage cheese, beaten eggs, and melted butter. Mix to combine well then fold the chopped broccoli and onion into the mixture. Pour into a 12″ greased iron skillet or a buttered 9×13 glass dish. Bake at 425 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until cornbread is a golden brown.

Someday I am going to add 2 cups of shredded sharp cheddar to this recipe :)

    This sounds wonderful! I have guests coming from Japan and they don’t like really sweet things (except for chocolates! LOL) so this will be something to serve them that’s a bit different and pleasing to their palate.
