Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (5 ounces) canned tuna (in water)
- 1 cup fresh broccoli florets
- 4 eggs
- 0.5 cup milk (any kind)
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 as needed cooking spray or butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan or similar baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Chop the fresh broccoli florets into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and lightly sauté the broccoli florets for 2-3 minutes until they are just tender but still crisp. Set aside to cool slightly.
Drain the canned tuna and use a fork to break it into small chunks.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and onion powder until well combined.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, sautéed broccoli, and flaked tuna to the egg mixture, stirring gently to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the quiche is set in the center and the top is lightly golden.
Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into wedges and serving.
