My Mom's Broccoli Quiche

7/4/2019

0 Comments

 
This quiche recipe was a childhood staple in my house. Pair it with a big glass of orange juice (I don't know why... but it just works) and serve it for dinner. I cut back on the broccoli a bit and add bacon when I'm making it for the kids. 

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 Pie Crust
  • 1 cup shredded swiss cheese (about 4 oz)
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups half and half (1 pint/16 oz)
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 to 3 cups broccoli florets

INSTRUCTIONS
    1. Microwave broccoli in microwave dish with about 1-2" water, dash of salt for 4 minutes (cover dish with saran wrap). Drain and allow to cool a few minutes.
    2. In separate bowl, beat eggs, half and half, salt, and pepper. When broccoli is cooled a bit, place it in pie crust that you've spread out in a glass pie plate. Add cheese and egg mixture. Bake 15 minutes at 425 degrees. Then turn oven down to 325 degrees and bake 30 minutes. Cool 5-10 minutes before cutting.
    3. Quiche Lorraine: eliminate broccoli and add bacon (cooked slices crumbled to pieces) and 1/2 cup freshly chopped onion.
