Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups broccoli floret
2 cloves garlic, minced, divided
1 cup grated parmesan cheese, divided, plus 2 tablespoons
1 egg
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 onion, diced
1 lb ground beef
1 lb sausage
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
⅓ cup fresh basil
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
24 oz tomato sauce, 1 jar, divided
6 oz tomato paste, 1 can
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
  • In a food processor add the broccoli, 1 cup (110g) of Parmesan, 1 clove of garlic, 1 egg, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pulse until mixture forms a dough like texture, about 2 minutes.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of the broccoli mixture and press into a well greased muffin tin. Form the mixture into a cup, making the bottom and sides ½-inches (1 cm) thick.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy and the bottom is firm.
  • Cool the broccoli cups. Once cooled, remove from the muffin tin.
  • Heat the oven to broil.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
  • Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and stir until browned.
  • Add the sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon, and stir until browned.
  • Mix in 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, salt, pepper, 3 tablespoons of the basil, and 2 tablespoons of the parsley, and stir to combine.
  • Add the tomato sauce and the tomato paste. Continue stirring until the meat sauce is bubbling. Reduce heat to low, and cover the pot, simmering for 45 minutes.
  • Place about a ¼ cup (65 g) of the ragu in the broccoli Parmesan cups. Top with mozzarella cheese.
  • Broil for 2 minutes until cheese is melted.
  • Top with the rest of the basil.
  • Broccoli Parmesan Cups can be stored up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven.
  • Enjoy!
