Broccoli Cheddar Quiche Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust in a roll
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- ⅓ cup diced yellow onion
- 1 cup frozen chopped broccoli florets
- ½ cup shredded cheddar (or your favorite flavor)
- 2 large eggs
- ⅓ cup whole milk (or heavy cream)
- Optional – 1/8 teaspoon salt
- Optional – 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional – 1 green onion, for garnish
Instructions
- Place the oven rack in middle position and preheat to 375 degrees F.
- Take the pie crust out of the fridge or freezer and let stand for 15 minutes.
- Cut the pie crust in half and place halves into two 18.6 ounce oven-safe baking dishes. It doesn’t have to be pretty! Poke each crust several times with a fork. Bake for 10 minutes or until light golden brown.
- While the pie crust bakes, heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent about 5 minutes.
- Add the onions, broccoli florets, and cheese to the bottom of the pre-baked pie crusts.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined. Pour the egg mixture over the broccoli mixture, divided evenly.
- Place the two oven-safe dishes into the oven and bake for 30 minutes until the quiche is set and the knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Notes

- Try switching up the ingredients by using a mixture of mild cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, or other cheese.

I made this for my son and I. We both loved it! The only issue I had was I didn't have the right kind of dish to cook them in. So I tried to rig something up in a 9x9 square pan with a tin foil divider and balls of tin foil to fill in spaces and try to prop up the crust. It sort of worked. Some of the egg leaked out, but not enough to compromise the quiche. I will definitely make this agin. (Hopefully with the right dish next time!)
