Hands on time: 10 minutes  Total time: 50 minutes  Serves: 20

Ingredients:

    2 (8 1/2-ounce) boxes Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
    1 cup (2 sticks) butter, melted
    4 eggs, beaten
    1 cup cottage cheese
    1 cup finely chopped onion (1 medium)
    1 (10-ounce) box frozen chopped broccoli, thawed, excess water squeezed out

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-inch-by-13-inch baking pan. In a mixing bowl, combine corn muffin mix, butter, eggs, cottage cheese, onion and broccoli. Spread in baking pan and bake until cake tester comes out clean and edges are lightly browned, about 35 to 40 minutes.

Notes:

> Tip: This bread is so moist, it reheats well. So you can make it a day in advance, store it in the refrigerator, and then either warm it in the oven or just bring it to room temperature before serving.

Very moist and slightly sweet, this bread has just enough broccoli in it to add a colorful fleck of green.
