Alaska Salmon Broccoli Cheddar Brunch Bake
Prep: 75 min | Cook: 50 min | Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (14.75 ounce) can or 2 (7.5 ounce) cans traditional pack Alaska salmon or 8 to 10 ounces skinless, boneless salmon (canned or pouched), drained and chunked
- 8 eggs
- 3 cups Half-and-Half or whole milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
- 8 cups 1 inch diced hearty French bread
- 3/4 cup sliced green onions
- 3 cups fresh blanched (see method below) or thawed and drained frozen broccoli florets, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 cups (8 ounces) coarsely grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Half-and-Half, salt, pepper and garlic until well combined. Add the bread, onions, broccoli and cheddar cheese and half of the Parmesan cheese. Then fold in the drained salmon.
- Place in a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight (preferably) so the bread soaks up the egg mixture. Uncover and sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the top.
- When ready to serve, bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for approximately 45 to 50 minutes or until puffy and golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Notes
Cook's tip: Quickly blanch fresh broccoli by placing in a loosely covered microwavable container and cooking on high for 1 minute or until just bright green.
