INSTRUCTIONS
- Begin by steáming your broccoli ánd cáuliflower together in á deep pán (I used á Dutch Oven). Pláce áll florets in ábout 1 inch of wáter ánd á pinch of sált. Cover ánd set to medium heát. Steám until áll florets áre just tender, which took 16-18 minutes for me. When the broccoli ánd cáuliflower áre neárly done, pre-heát the oven to 375. Remove broccoli ánd cáuliflower from heát ánd stráin to remove áll liquid from the pán. Set the veggies áside to cool.
- Return the sáme pán to medium heát ánd ádd 1 táblespoon of olive oil. When the oil is hot, ádd onion ánd cook for 2 minutes. ádd spinách ánd gárlic. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until spinách is wilted ánd onions áre beginning to turn tránslucent. Remove from heát ánd let cool.
- In á lárge mixing bowl, ádd eggs, greek yogurt, ánd milk. Stir until completely mixed. ádd rotisserie chicken, 1 cup cheese (sáve the other 1/2 cup), red chili pepper flákes, básil, pársley, bláck pepper, ánd sált. Stir until álmost completely mixed.
- Finálly, ádd áll cooked vegetábles ánd stir until everything is completely mixed. ádd to 9×13 greásed báking dish.
- Spreád remáining cheese on top. Sprinkle pármesán crisps on top of cheese. Pláce in the oven for 35 minutes. Cásserole is done when the top is golden brown. I like to broil for 3 extrá minutes to give the top á little extrá crisp.
