DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°. Butter four 8-ounce ramekins (or a 9-inch pie dish) and set aside. Heat a large saucepan and add 1 tablespoon butter; add broccoli, peppers and artichokes; cook 1 - 2 minutes until softened. Transfer to a cutting board, and blot dry with paper towels. Chop coarsely.

- Place ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet. Ladle vegetable-cheese mixture into ramekins, dividing evenly. Bake until golden brown and puffed up, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve with a mixed-green salad, if desired.
