 Ingredients List

  • 3 tb Parmesan cheese; grated
  • 2 md Beets; cooked and peeled
  • 2 tb Butter
  • 2 tb Flour
  • 3/4 c Chicken broth; hot
  • 1 c Beet greens; sauteed
  • 1/2 c Cheddar cheese; grated
  • 3 Egg yolks
  • 4 Egg whites

 Directions

Butter a 1 qt. souffle dish; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Slice the
cooked beets and line the bottom of the souffle dish with them.

In a small saucepan, melt the butter, stir in the flour, add the hot broth
and continue to cook until slightly thickened, then transfer to a larger
bowl. Coarsely chop beet greens and add to the sauce along with Cheddar
cheese.

In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks; blend them with beet green mixture.
Beat egg whites until they form peaks. Fold into bowl with other
ingredients; blend well. Transfer all to buttered souffle dish. Sprinkle
with Parmesan cheese.

Bake at 350 F. for 30 minutes, or until souffle is puffed and golden.

Ogden writes: "This may be one of the most exceptional souffles you'll ever
serve. The beet color spreads upward from the bottom layer, creating a
rosy hue throughout."
