3 Points, Weight Watchers

Ingredients

2 spray(s) cooking spray

1 pound(s) , florets, finely chopped uncooked broccoli

2/3 cup(s) all-purpose flour

2 cup(s) low-fat milk

1 medium clove(s) , minced garlic clove(s)

1/2 cup(s) reduced-fat sour cream

2/3 cup(s) , high-quality suggested grated parmesan cheese

1 tsp lemon zest

1 tsp table salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

3 large egg(s) , separated egg(s)

3 large egg white(s)

Directions

Preheat oven to 325ºF. Coat a 2-quart soufflé dish with cooking spray.

Bring a medium-size pot of water to a boil; cook broccoli for 4 minutes. Immediately remove broccoli from pot and plunge in a bowl of ice water to stop it from cooking; when cool, drain and set aside.

In a medium saucepan, combine flour, milk and garlic; set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low and add sour cream, Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, salt, pepper and egg yolks; cook until thick, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Pour mixture into a large bowl and stir in broccoli; set aside.

In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat all six egg whites until stiff peaks form; gently fold into broccoli mixture, a little at a time, until combined.

Immediately spoon broccoli mixture into prepared dish and bake until eggs are set, about 35 to 45 minutes. Serve immediately. Yields about 3/4 cup per serving.
