Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 1 cup cooked salmon (flaked)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 piece store-bought or homemade pie crust
- 4 large eggs
- 1.5 cups heavy cream
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon dried dill
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan and crimp the edges. Set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the broccoli florets and sauté for 3–4 minutes until they are just tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, milk, salt, black pepper, dried dill, and garlic powder until fully combined.
Arrange the flaked salmon, sautéed broccoli, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the pie crust.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the filling, ensuring it spreads evenly and covers the ingredients.
Place the quiche on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is set and lightly golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature for a delightful, hearty meal.
