Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F. And spray a 9 inch pie plate with cooking spray. 
  2. Add the broccoli florets to a bowl with a tablespoon of water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and poke a small slit in the plastic with a knife. Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until the broccoli is crisp-tender and bright green.
  3. Add the broccoli, roasted red peppers, green onions, and half of the gruyere cheese to the pie plate. 
  4. In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, spices, salt and pepper, cottage cheese, and milk. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetable. If needed, spread out the cottage cheese with a rubber spatula. 
  5. Top with the remaining gruyere and place it in the oven. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the quiche browns and puffs, and the center is set.
