Healthy Recipe | Broccoli Quiche

This has turned into one of our favorite meals at our house.  It's easy, inexpensive, and yummy.  And most days I have all the ingredients on hand.

I especially like this recipe because my one year old will not eat eggs.  I think he hates the texture.  But, he will chow down on some quiche!  I have a hard time being certain he is getting enough protein so this is really a big deal for me.  Do you have a hard time getting your little one to eat protein?

I initially created this recipe when some friends were coming into town so that I wouldn't have to stand at the stove and make breakfast in the morning while they were there.  I wanted to be able to enjoy their company.  This is a great breakfast, lunch, or dinner and it reheats really well.

Broccoli Quiche:

• 1 cup broccoli 
• 1 pie crust (I buy the frozen store brand)
• 4 eggs
• 1 1/2 c mozzerella cheese
• 1 c milk (I use whole)
• 1 small onion

1. Sautee cut up broccoli and onion in a pan until tender.
2. Put broccoli in pie crust.
3. Beat 4 eggs and milk together until blended.
4. Pour cheese over broccoli.  Cover with eggs and milk.
5. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
6. Enjoy!

*I always line a baking sheet with tin foil and place the pie crust on that while baking.  It never fails that my egg mixture overruns the sides of the crust and makes a mess to clean up.
