Low Carb Three Layer Kugel (Parve) NO noodles

SWEET POTATO LAYER
2 large sweet potatoes
1 carrot
1 apple
1/2 lemon, juice and grated rind
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup canola oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
BROCCOLI LAYER
1 pound (450 grams) frozen broccoli
3 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 small onion, chopped
1 Tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons salt
CAULIFLOWER LAYER
1 pound (450 grams) frozen cauliflower
3 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 small onion, chopped
1 Tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons salt

NOTE: To increase the protein, I would add some unflavored pea protein powder in place of some of the flour for each layer. This is a low carb dish if one only has one serving, but it isn't high protein as written, and it does have about 15 grams of fat per serving.

Spray a 9" X 13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. And preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

SWEET POTATO LAYER:
Shred potatoes, carrot and apple, and combine all ingredients for the sweet potato layer. Pour batter into bottom layer of prepared pan.

BROCCOLI LAYER:
Cook frozen broccoli in boiling water; cover pot and simmer. When broccoli is soft enough to mash with a fork, drain. Combine broccoli with eggs, mayonnaise, flour, onion, garlic powder, and salt. Mix together well.
Pour broccoli mixture on top of the sweet potato layer into the pan, keeping the layers separate.

CAULIFLOWER LAYER
Cook frozen cauliflower as for broccoli. When cauliflower is soft enough to mash with a fork, drain. Combine cauliflower with eggs, mayonnaise, flour, onion, garlic powder, and salt, as for broccoli. Pour cauliflower mixture on top of the broccoli layer into the pan, keeping the layers separate. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 1 hour or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

Divide into 24 2 inch by 3 inch portions.
