Soybean Casserole

"I made this up one day while reading several cookbooks, taking some of this and some of that and a bit of trial and error. I was trying to come up with a way to get my family to eat soybeans without thinking of it as another one of my "weird health food" dishes. My family loves it."

directions

  • Soak soybeans overnight in at least six cups of water.
  • Cook soybeans in new water until tender.
  • Thaw spinach in a bowl in the microwave.
  • Saute onion (You could add one green pepper if you like.) Mix soybeans, crumbled bacon bits, onions and spinach together and spread in a large casserole dish.
  • In a separate bowl, mix crumbled feta cheese, cottage cheese, and one egg.
  • Spread cheese mixture over soybeans.
  • Bake in 350 degree F oven 45 minutes until topping is brown and casserole is heated through.
  • Variations: Use fresh spinach or broccoli or frozen broccoli.
  • Note: You may need two eggs for binding the cheese to soybeans if feta is particularly dry.
  • Sometimes I dust the top with a bit of paprika for color not for taste.
  • You can use more or less bacon.
  • It is just a teaser to get them to try it.
  • I've made it without the bacon for a vegetarian friend of mine and she loved it.

I love to cook "feel-good" food that is delicious. Reading recipes helps me get the creative energy going so we don't eat SOSO - same old same old. Love Jesus, quilting, reading, hiking, and purposeful acts of kindness.
