Broccoli and Ham Quiche Recipe
This is an easy recipe to make. A savory egg custard dish filled with lots of cheese, delicious ham, broccoli, sauteed onions, and whole eggs, this is a filling dish to have breakfast for dinner if you are so inclined. Of course, this is also a wonderful breakfast or brunch recipe.
Tips and variations for making this broccoli and ham quiche:
● If you would like to make your own pie crust, you may want to try this sweeter pie crust recipe. You can also use a pre-made refrigerated pie crust found in the dairy case.
● If you chose to use frozen broccoli instead of fresh broccoli, only cook for ½ the recommended time, and make certain you drain before adding to the rest of the mixture.
● You can substitute black pepper for white pepper.
● This is made with Swiss cheese, but you might choose cheddar cheese or provolone cheese instead.
● A tablespoon of Parmesan cheese added to the top of the quiche can also be very tasty.
● One clove of garlic is approximately 1 tablespoon. That is the amount you should use in the recipe if using jarred garlic.
● You can use whole broccoli, but I would dice/cut the pieces before adding the broccoli to the recipe. Broccoli florets might be the easiest to use.
● There are no bell peppers in this recipe. If you decide to add them, make certain to sauté them first.
● The flour is a binder. You can use Wondra instead.
● This is a great recipe for using leftover Easter ham or Christmas ham. If you do not have leftover ham, substitute a nice deli ham diced into small pieces.
● This makes 6-8 servings depending on how large you cut the wedges.
● If you use a keto pie crust or make this a crustless quiche, you could make this into a keto quiche (also change the flour binder). It is not keto-friendly as written, but easily adaptable.
● Garnish with sour cream if you like!
● All ingredients used in this recipe are commonly found at your local grocery store.
