Vegetarian Broccoli Casserole (Gratin) is a delicious dish where broccoli and peas are baked in rich creamy white sauce along with lots of cheese. It is a perfect option for potluck, christmas or thanksgiving dinner.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think there is anyone who does not love white sauce especially when it is so cheesy, yummy and on top of it baked to perfection but many of us hesitate to make it regularly or for kids because of all purpose flour or \u201cMaida\u201d used in its preparation. So in this post I have tried to bring things into balance by combining taste along with the health.<\/p>\n

In preparation of regular white sauce, we generally use butter, all purpose flour(maida) and milk. In this Broccoli Gratin recipe, the ingredients have been given a slight healthy twist. Butter is replaced with Olive Oil<\/strong>, Maida is replaced with whole wheat flour<\/strong> and low fat milk has been used in preparation of sauce in order to bring down the fat percentage. It is then combined with broccoli and peas which are two really healthy green vegetables. The dish is flavoured using sauteed onions and garlic. For seasoning black pepper and oregano is used. You can also use chilly flakes or ready made Italian seasoning for it.<\/p>\n

\"Cheese<\/p>\n

It is winter time and also the best season for getting fresh healthy green vegetables in Indian market. This recipe would definitely be liked by kids as it contains lots of white sauce, cheese and yes also a reason for you to be happy as it will make those fussy eaters eat their portion of broccoli. If you are making this recipe for someone who is diet conscious or trying to make your kids stay away from processed cheese then feel free to skip grated cheese in the recipe, as it would still taste good.<\/p>\n
