BROCCOLI QUICHE IN POTATO CRUST
Very easy to throw together! We used to travel around the country in a beat up old motorhome, and this was a good dinner for us, as it doesn't take much kitchen space or much cleanup. It's from Secrets of Fat-Free Cooking, but I hate nonfat cheddar cheese and use lowfat instead. The original recipe called for 1 1/2 teaspoons of mustard, but we thought that was totally overpowering, and cut it way back. This one certainly leaves room for some playing around-you could change the vegetable or add your favorite herbs or spices, but we eat it just the way it is. Hope you enjoy!

POTATO CRUST QUICHE
My husband and I have lived in four different states, and we've grown potatoes in every one of them. I mostly make this dish for family, but company loves it, too. It's almost a meal in itself-all you need to add is a salad. -Nancy Smith, Scottsdale, Arizona

Tips:
- To make a crispy potato crust, use a combination of Yukon Gold and russet potatoes. Yukon Gold potatoes are creamy and flavorful, while russet potatoes are starchy and help to hold the crust together.
- Be sure to grate the potatoes finely. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- When sautéing the broccoli, be careful not to overcook it. You want it to remain crisp-tender.
- Use a variety of cheeses in your quiche. This will give it a more complex flavor. Some good options include cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan.
- Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeaten eggs can make the quiche tough.
- Be patient when baking the quiche. It takes about an hour for it to cook through. Don't be tempted to open the oven door during baking, as this can cause the quiche to fall.
Conclusion:
This broccoli quiche in potato crust is a delicious and satisfying dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
