Parmesan Popovers

I thought these would be a nice addition to a grilled chicken salad. At one point a piece, you really can't go wrong with these. I saw Giada De Laurentiis making these on her show a few days ago, and thought it would be super easy to make point friendly. Turns out it was.

Parmesan Popovers (12 servings at 1 point a piece)

Ingredients

3/4 cups egg beaters
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 cup skim milk
3/4 cup fat free grated Parmesan (about 5 ounces)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a blender, combine eggs, flour, salt, pepper, and herbs, milk, and cheese. Blend on medium speed. Spray a mini-muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the batter into the muffin cups, filling each cup 3/4 full. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove popovers from muffin tin and cool on a wire rack.

You can find the original recipe at the Food Network site. Right when they came out of the oven they were all puffed and golden brown. As they cooled they deflated a bit, but that was okay because they were still tasty. The husband said they tasted like a breakfast casserole, and looked like mini soufflés :)

    These sound really good. Do you have a recipe for your grilled chicken salad? That also sounds great!
    Thank you!

    My grilled chicken salad is just that. I bought the Tyson's pre-cooked grilled chicken and placed it on top of a bed of lettuce with cucumbers, carrots, a little bit of hard boiled egg, and fat free Italian dressing.
