Easy Peasy Quiche

I always thought Quiche was supposed to be so complicated, but it's probably one of the simplest meals I have ever made. It's a great crowd pleaser. 

The quiche pictured below is ham & broccoli, but really you can make it with whatever you like: spinach/artichoke, bacon/zucchini, blue cheese & herb, mushroom/swiss... the possibilities are endless!

All you need is:

1 Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust
1 cup diced ham
1 cup raw broccoli crowns
4 large eggs
1/3 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded romano cheese
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 tsp black pepper 

1) Bring to boil one small pot of water. Drop in broccoli crowns, cook 3-4 minutes until bright green and softened. Remove from stovetop and drain, rinse in cold water to shock and stop them from over-cooking. Rough chop the broccoli, set aside.

2) Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Unravel pie crust onto 8-9" aluminum pie pan evenly, push down into bottom edge to secure. Lightly poke several holes into dough at the bottom of the pan with a fork. 

3) In a large mixing bowl whisk together eggs, milk, black pepper, romano, sharp cheddar, ham and broccoli. Pour mixture into pie crust. Pinch/fold pie crust edge into whatever shape you like. Here are some examples.

4) Place quiche in oven and bake at 425 for 30-35 minutes or until top of quiche is golden brown like in the picture below.

5) Allow quiche to cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
