Creamy quiche filled with broccoli and cheese. Good hot or cold!
Ingredients
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 lb. broccoli (I used frozen)
  • salt, pepper to taste
  • pinch nutmeg
  • prebake a pie crust (I used Pillsbury for convenience today)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Whip eggs in blender. Stir in whipping cream and seasonings.
  3. Pour frozen broccoli into pie shell. Salt a little. Top with cheese. Pour egg mixture into pie pie shell.
  4. Place on a baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes until center is set.
  6. Note: I also use fat free half and half in place of whipping cream. If I do I only use fresh blanched broccoli that has been dried with paper towels. This quiche tends to sometimes be a little watery if you don't eat it fresh from the oven. It tastes good and I think it is worth the difference in calories. It also takes a little longer baking time.
