Ingredients
1 Tablespoon butter1 medium onion, sliced4 cups Chard or Kale, washed and chopped1/2 tsp salt2 eggs3/4 cup skim milk2 T buttermilk, lowfat2 1/2 T mustard (whole grain or dijon, I use a mix)1 teaspoon ground sage1 teaspoon nutmeg1 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepperfreshly ground black pepper2 1/4 cup butternut squash, cut into 1/3" cubes4 slices reduced calorie wheat bread4 ounces cheddar cheese, cubed ( I grated half and cubed half and used the cubes on the top layer)
In large skillet melt the butter and cook the onions until just soft. Set aside half of the onions. Add the chard/kale by handfuls, stirring to coat with the butter. Let cook a minute or two and then add next handful. When all the greens are added, let cook until soft. Add salt and set aside.
Mix all ingredients for the custard together (eggs through black pepper)
Preheat oven to 375. In large bowl combine the squash, bread and cheese and the reserved cooked onions. Transfer half of the mixture to lightly buttered 8 x 8 baking dish. Arrange the cooked greens on top, then add the remaining squash and bread mixture. Gently pour custard over top, being careful to wet all of the bread pieces, especially.
Bake for 45 - 50 minutes. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before cutting. Serves 9. Reheats well.
