I cooked and mashed a whole cauliflower instead of using the broccoli. It was delicious! Thanks for a very good recipe.

I changed a lot of this recipe because I just couldn't justify the calories. I needed to find a way to lighten it up...and I did! I used 3 eggs and 1 medium carton of egg whites, I used low fat mayo and only put about 1/2 a cup (maybe even less) and omitted the margarine altogether. The result...delicious! Sometimes when I lighten up recipes, they taste like I've really lightened them up too much...but that wasn't the case with this recipe at all. It was so delicious. I will make it again, but will definitely be using my lower-calorie version. Thanks Miraklegirl!

The mayo mixture didn't cover the broccoli (as can be seen in the picture) so the bits of broccoli that stuck up above the line got dry and hard while cooking.

I did add 1/2 cup sharp cheddar and 1/2 cp shredded mozzarella. It was delicious. Kitty
