An easy, healthy way to get your eggs at any time of day.
Ingredients
  • ½ cup chopped cooked ham (I used deli ham - a combination of ham and bacon bits would also be great!), or 10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup chopped broccoli
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 6-8 eggs, beaten
  • 2 Tbsp melted butter
  • ½ cup flour
  • 1½ cups 2% milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375.
  2. Lightly grease 9" pie plate.
  3. Toss meat, ¾ cup of cheese, broccoli and green onion in bottom of dish; spread fairly evenly.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk all other ingredients until quite smooth (you might still have a few lumps from the flour).
  5. Pour egg mixture over contents in pie plate (they will rise and distribute through the egg). Top with remaining ¼ cup of cheese.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until fully set and slightly puffed. Serve warm.
Notes
Baking the quiche at 375 gives it a slightly firmer/crisper top and bottom, which I like...if you prefer a uniform softness to your eggs, bake at 350 and increase baking time by 5 minutes if necessary to set center.
