Tips:

  • Choose fresh and high-quality ingredients: Use fresh spinach and broccoli for the best flavor and texture. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese will also give the casserole a more浓郁flavor than pre-packaged grated cheese.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Blanching the spinach and broccoli briefly helps to preserve their color, flavor, and nutrients. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Use a low-fat milk or dairy alternative: This will help to keep the casserole low in fat and calories. You can also use a combination of milk and water to further reduce the fat content.
  • Season the casserole to taste: Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as basil, oregano, or red pepper flakes.
  • Top the casserole with a crispy breadcrumb topping: This will add a delicious crunch to the casserole. You can use panko breadcrumbs, regular breadcrumbs, or crushed crackers.

This low-fat spinach and broccoli casserole is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to sneak in some extra vegetables for your family.
