Ingredients

  • 1 pie crust, softened as directed on the box
  • 2 cups broccoli, chopped
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 eggs, slightly beaten
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic salt (with parsley flakes)
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 3 teaspoons minced garlic 

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F
  2. Use a shallow-sided 9-inch glass pie plate. Place the pie crust in the plate and crimp the edges. Double-folded the edges of the crust and then crimped. Poke the bottom of the pie crust to let air vent out. Prebake the crust for 10-12 minutes.
  3. Allow to cool a bit then place the broccoli and cheese on the bottom of the pie crust.
  4. In a medium bowl, mix the milk, eggs, salt, pepper, and garlic. Pour over the broccoli and cheese.
  5. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Check if it's done by inserting a knife in the center. If it comes out clean, take the quiche out of the oven.
  6. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Make a freezer meal. Freeze the uncooked quiche until ready to bake and serve. Slide the quiche into a freezer-safe bag that is airtight. Freeze for up to one month in advance. To bake, remove it from the freezer and let it thaw a bit. Bake, adding a few extra minutes to the time.
  • Make ahead of time. Fully bake the quiche, let it cool, then store it covered in the fridge for 1-2 days before reheating it in the oven at 325°F for about 15 minutes or until warm.
  • STORE. Leave any leftover broccoli cheese quiche in the baking pan, cover it with foil, and keep it in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave.
