Crustless Broccoli-Cheddar Quiches

Soooo, we had breakfast for dinner tonight!  How can anyone argue that right?  We all know how much we loved having eggs, bacon and pancakes for dinner growing up.  (It was definitely one of my faves!)  We tried to make it a little more like a dinner so we found a quiche that wasn't so much like a breakfast.  Broccoli and cheese are two of my favorite things to eat so you can't go wrong with me on this recipe!! 

Crustless Broccoli-Cheddar Quiches

Butter, for pie dish
Coarse Salt
1 package (10 ounces) frozen broccoli florets
6 large eggs
1/2 cup half and half
Ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 cup cheddar cheese (3 ounces)

Preheat oven to 350.  Butter a 9 inch pie dish; set aside.  Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.  Add broccoli; cook about 4 minutes.  Drain well and transfer to a cutting board, and blot dry with paper towels.  Chop coarsely.

In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, half and half, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and nutmeg.  Stir in broccoli and cheese.

Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. 


I think I ate half of the pie MYSELF................ haha.  What's new!!!  It was sooo yummy!  It would also be really good with ham mixed in.  Might have to try that next time.
