Introduction
A great way to get veggie haters to eat their veggies. Use ANY cooked veggies: Beets, carrots, green beans etc. Texture and taste is definately better with REAL eggs. I use the Omega-3 eggs.I was trying to find a veggie/muffin recipe that would be comparable to the calories, fat, and protien in the "Hollywood Cookie Diet" cookies.

Ingredients
-
1 cup cooked broccoli or other veggies.
1 REAL egg, large
1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Lightly spray REGULAR size muffin tins or use
paper liners.
2. If you haven't done so already, steam the veggies and drain.
3. Place veggies in a mixing bowl and mash. Add the egg and the bread crumbs and mix well.
4. Divide evenly among 6 muffin cups.
5. Bake 30-40 minutes. (Bake time may vary according to veggies used.)
I like to spread some fat-free cream cheese on the muffin to increase the protein. You can use stuffing mix but, that will affect the nutritional content. Be sure to grind the stuffing mix in the food processor to fine crumbs.
You can have one of these with a 1/2 glass of milk which will add 45 calories and 150 mg of Calcium.
