Do you want your kids to eat a healthier breakfast and teach them how to cook at the same time? This is a very kid friendly recipe. Let me know how it goes!
Ingredients:
2 english muffins
1 bunch broccolini or broccoli
1 large shallot
5 oz swiss cheese
5 eggs
3/4 cup half-and-half
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
salt and pepper
2 Tbsp. finely grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. Get the ingredients ready. Tear up the english muffins into crumb size bits. Trim the broccolini and cut into 1/2 inch pieces; chop the shallot. Shred the swiss cheese. In a large liquid measure, beat together the eggs and half-and-half.
2. Preheat the oven to 325. In a large skillet, melt 2 Tbsp. butter over medium heat. Add the english muffin crumbs and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Wipe out skillet and reserve. Lightly butter an 8-inch square baking dish.
3. In the reserved skillet, melt the remaining 1 Tbsp butter over medium heat. Add the shallot, 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the broccolini and cook for 1 minute. Add the 1/2 cup water, increase the heat to medium-high and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the water is evaporated and the broccolini is crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes; transfer to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup swiss cheese. Pour the egg mixture on top of the broccolini mixture.
