Broccoli Cheese Quiche
Ingredients:
- .5 c Red Onions finely chopped
- 1 tsp Garlic finely chopped
- 1 c Broccoli Florets finely chopped
- 1 tbsp Coconut Oil or fat of your choice
- 1 Pie Crust see gluten-/grain-free recipe on our site here: https://www.20dishes.com/recipe/pie-crust-gluten-and-grain-free/
- 5 Eggs whisked
- .25 c Heavy Cream raw milk or low-heat pasteurized if you can find it
- .25 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 c Cheddar Cheese raw milk if you can find it
Instructions:
- Pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees.
- In a frying pan, sauté the onions, garlic, and broccoli in some coconut oil until lightly browned.
- Prepare the pie crust—usually you'll want to partially bake the crust before adding the egg mixture.
- When your oven is hot, place the empty crust in the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the crust is lightly brown.
- In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, cream, and salt.
- Once your pie crust is ready, spoon the onion mixture into the crust and add 1/2 of the cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over that and then top with the other half of the cheese. Feel free to use more or less cheese depending on your tastes.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the middle of the quiche is almost firm (you want there to be a little jiggle when you move it).
- Let the quiche rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
