Ham & Broccoli Cheese Quiche
This delicious quiche recipe is perfect for brunch or to make and have in the fridge for breakfast during the week. It is a great option for using any ham leftovers. I love to make it in a cast iron skillet for easy cleanup. If you don't have one, a pie pan will also work. Just be careful not to overfill it. This recipe is also versatile. Substitute the protein with bacon, the broccoli with baby spinach, cauliflower, or artichoke, and the cheese with whatever you prefer.

  • Cook Time:

Ingredients

  • (9) Fresh Pastured Eggs
  • (1/4 C) Ham, diced
  • (1/2 Stick) Organic Grass-Fed Butter
  • (1) Shallot, minced
  • (1-2) Cloves Garlic, minced
  • (4 oz.) Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • (3/4 C) Plain Whole Milk Greek Yogurt
  • (1/2 tsp.) Ground Mustard
  • (Pinch) Salt

Directions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350*F and chop the broccoli and shallot.

Step 2: Heat a large cast iron skillet then add the butter moving it around the pan. Once melted, add the broccoli, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Cook the broccoli until the moisture is cooked out, approximately 7-8 minutes. Then allow too cool down a bit.

Step 3: Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Add the yogurt and whisk together until well blended. Add the cheese and ham to the egg mixture and mix well.

Step 4: Stir the egg mixture into the cast iron skillet combining it with the broccoli and onions.

Step 5: Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until the quiche is set in the center and nicely browned along the edges.

Step 6: All to cool then slice and serve.

NOTE: If you prefer to place the quiche mixture in a pie crust (homemade or frozen), the cooking time will take closer to an hour. I have also substituted milk for yogurt when I didn't have any yogurt on hand.
