Ingredients

24 servings
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 egg
  • 2 ounces cream cheese (about ¼ cup, softened)
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • ½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown rice)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.

  2. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add broccoli and cook until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Drain very well and chop into small pieces. Cool completely.

  3. Combine the egg, cream cheese, sour cream, mustard powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in chopped broccoli, rice, and both cheeses.

  4. Grease a mini muffin tin very well or use silicone liners. Gently divide the rice mixture over the muffin wells.

  5. Bake 14-18 minutes or until set and browned on top.

  6. Let cool in the pan at least 5 minutes before removing. To loosen, gently run a knife around the edges of each broccoli cup.
