Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 cup Mushrooms, sliced
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 4 Eggs
- 2 Egg whites
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or low-fat milk)
- 0.75 cup Reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 can (spray) Cooking spray
- 1 Prepared pie crust (optional, for a lighter version, omit)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
If using a pie crust, place it in a 9-inch pie plate and trim any excess dough around the edges.
Lightly spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat it over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Add the mushrooms and broccoli to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the broccoli turns bright green. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, and almond milk until well combined.
Stir in the shredded cheese, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cooked vegetables from the skillet to the egg mixture and stir to combine evenly.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust (if using) or directly into the greased pie plate for a crustless version.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and lightly golden on top. To check, insert a knife in the center; it should come out clean.
Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into 6 equal portions.
Serve warm, or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for a quick, healthy meal option.
