This is a family recipe that can easily be adapted to suit tastes. For example, you can use chopped spinach instead of broccoli, omit the mushrooms, add bits of chopped cooked ham, etc. I have been making this for years and it is a favorite in our house.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

21/2 c shredded swiss or jarlsburg cheese
3 medium eggs
1 1/2 c heavy cream
1 pkg 10 oz, chopped broccoli, thawed
1 pkg 8 oz, sliced mushrooms
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 stick butter
1 9"-10" deep dish pie shell, room temperature
1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 c parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard cookie sheet with foil. Place the pie shell on the cookie sheet. (The filling may overflow during baking)
  • 2. In a large skillet on medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and saute for 2-3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and chopped broccoli. Saute 7-10 minutes until tender. Set aside.
  • 3. In a large bowl, add the heavy cream, eggs and cheese. Mix thoroughly. Add a pinch of nutmeg. You may also want to add 1/8 tsp black pepper and a little salt. Mix in the sauteed vegetables. Blend thoroughly. Pour into the pie shell and sprinkle top with 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese. Bake 45-50 minutes until center is firm and pie is golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh broccoli and mushrooms will give your quiche the best flavor. If you can't find fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables will also work.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: You want the vegetables to be tender, but not mushy. Cook them until they are just starting to soften.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in a quiche, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese are both good choices.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeaten eggs will make your quiche tough. Just whisk the eggs until they are well combined.
  • Bake the quiche in a water bath: This will help to prevent the quiche from overcooking and cracking.

Conclusion:

This broccoli mushroom quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetables, and it's also a good source of protein and calcium. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this broccoli mushroom quiche a try.
