Rustic Turkey, Cottage Cheese and Broccoli Bake with Almond Crust

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200 °C / 400 °F. Lightly grease a medium baking dish with a little of the olive oil.

2. 2

   Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more.

3. 3

   Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink. Season with the salt, black pepper, sweet paprika, and dried oregano.

4. 4

   Add the broccoli in small florets to the skillet and cook for 3 minutes, stirring, so it softens slightly while keeping some texture. Remove from the heat and let it cool for 5 minutes.

5. 5

   In a large bowl, mix the cottage cheese, eggs, plain Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and half of the grated Parmesan until creamy.

6. 6

   Add the warm turkey and broccoli mixture to the bowl and stir well to combine all the ingredients.

7. 7

   Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

8. 8

   In a small bowl, combine the almond flour with the remaining grated Parmesan. Sprinkle this mixture over the top to create the crust.

9. 9

   Bake for 25 to 27 minutes at 200 °C / 400 °F, until the bake is set and the top is golden.

10. 10

    Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Finish with the chopped fresh parsley on top and serve hot.
