WW BROCCOLI AND PARMESAN SOUFFLE
Found this on the Weight Watchers Site and with Points Plus it's only 3 points per serving. I love souffles, they are so empressive (IMHO) and what could be better than broccoli and parm - YUM; Serve as soon as it comes from the oven - but no peeking before hand as with all souffles it sinks fast.

Pour mixture into a large bowl and stir in broccoli; set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat all six egg whites until stiff peaks form; gently fold into broccoli mixture, a little at a time, until combined.

Tips:
- Use fresh broccoli. Fresh broccoli has a better flavor and texture than frozen broccoli. If you don't have fresh broccoli, you can use frozen broccoli, but be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
- Grate the Parmesan cheese finely. Finely grated Parmesan cheese will melt more easily and evenly into the souffle.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the souffle tough.
- Bake the souffle until it is golden brown and puffed up. A properly baked souffle will be golden brown and puffed up. It will also have a slight jiggle to it when you shake the pan.
- Serve the souffle immediately. Souffles are best served immediately after they are baked. They will start to fall after a few minutes, so don't wait to eat them.
Conclusion:
Broccoli and Parmesan souffle is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a good source of protein and calcium. With a few simple tips, you can make a souffle that is light, fluffy, and flavorful.
