BROCCOLI CHEDDAR QUICHE

Serves 6

INGREDIENTS⁠
⁠1 store bought roll out pie crust
1 tablespoon salted butter
2 cups broccoli cut into very small florets
1 cup yellow onion diced small
1 garlic clove minced or pressed
6 large eggs
¾ cup heavy cream or half & half
1 cup freshly grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS⁠

1. Preheat oven to 375℉. Roll out the crust and fit into a standard depth pie plate. Line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or beans and blind bake crust 15-20 minutes, or until the outside crust starts to brown. Remove from the oven and set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 350℉. (Don't skip this step!)

2. In a large saute pan over medium high heat, add the butter. Saute the broccoli and onion until softened and starting to brown, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Cool mixture slightly.

3. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and heavy cream or half & half together. Add in cheese, broccoli mixture, salt and pepper and combine. Pour mixture into the par baked pie shell, place on a sheet pan and place onto the middle rack of the oven.

4. Bake 35-45 minutes or until just the center is slightly jiggly when touched and the crust is golden brown. If the crust starts to become overly brown while cooking, you can place a pie protector or foil over the crust. Remove from the oven and let cool at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving. Quiche is best served warm or at room temperature.

NOTES

Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave until heated through or eat cold or room temperature.
