Easy Broccoli Casserole, egg-free,
dairy-free, gluten-free


I've been wanting to develop an egg-free and grain-free casserole lately. Now before you say, "But there's corn in there!" I know. Corn is a grain. I happened to get some fresh corn in the husk in my Door to Door Organics box today, so I added it to this casserole. In the future I plan to use sauteed celery and onions in place of the fresh corn. Either way, it's excellent.

The girls are usually not fans of casserole, but this they loved. Zoe thought it was so cool that, "It's Greeeen!" =) If you prefer you could leave out the spinach and it wouldn't be green.

oh I'm so excited about this. I avoid nuts also - so would rice milk work as a replacement of the cashew milk?!

Great recipe for a dish-to-pass too. =)

I just ran out of quinoa so as soon as I get some, I'll make this. It looks awesome. I miss casseroles since most use cream of whatever soup and cheese.

I think I'm going to try it, but add a bit of nutritional yeast to it. Maybe I'll do that the second time around to compare. Thanks!

Hey.
First of all, I enjoy your blog and I also enjoy your recipes. But I just noticed, maybe because I have so much of it in my own cupboard and need to use it up, that you don't use amaranth.
Have you ever used it before and do you have any recipes with amaranth in it?

Kelly said...

Thanks guys!

Roxy, Yes, I used to eat an amaranth cereal when I was first diagnosed. Then we moved away from the store that I was buying it from, and I forgot about that amaranth cereal.

I would be interested in using it in recipes, but I'm happy with the few I use now, and I like to keep it as simple as possible, especially for my readers. :-)

Do you use the coconut milk from a can or the one in the box, that looks similar to almond milk?
The one in the can seems to be very thick! Just wondering.
thank you!
