So incredibly good you will not believe how easy they are to make. A family secret recipe that leaves lots of room for interpretation. We eat these a lot in the summer for dinner with a salad and a loaf of good bread. YUM! But be sure that if adding cooked ingredients, allow them to cool a bit before adding milk and eggs so they don't start to scramble. Eat lukewarm for best flavor or warm.

Time 50m

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
20 ounces frozen chopped broccoli
3 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
seasoning salt

Steps:

  • Grease a 9x13 baking pan with the butter.

Tips:

  • For a more intense flavor, use aged cheddar cheese or a combination of cheddar and Parmesan.
  • If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to every cup of all-purpose flour.
  • To make the squares even cheesier, add 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese to the top before baking.
  • If you like your squares with a little bit of a kick, add 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the batter.
  • Be sure to grease the baking pan well before pouring in the batter, or the squares will stick.
  • Bake the squares until they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the squares cool for a few minutes before serving, or they will be too soft.
