Baked Leeks with Cheese and Yogurt Topping Recipe covers boiled leeks with sauce of egg, goat cheese, yogurt and Parmesan cheese then sprinkles with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese to create a delicious leek casserole.


INGREDIENTS
8 small leeks, about 1 1/2 pounds

5 oz fresh goat cheese
1/3 cup plain yogurt
2 oz Parmesan cheese, grated
1 oz fresh white or brown bread crumbs
