Broccoli Bacon Crustless Quiche

We do breakfast for dinner at least twice a month these days. The husband and I both really like breakfast food and honestly, what's easier than scrambled eggs? I also love love love quiche. I mean really love it. I used to make it with those wonderful ready-made pie crusts which of course are out of the question now. So...thanks to Martha Stewart and Pinterest I decided to try my hand at a crustless quiche instead. It worked wonderfully and the entire thing was eaten in 24 hours.

What you need
- 1 bag frozen broccoli florets (10 oz)
- 5 strips bacon, cooked and chopped
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 C half n half
- 1 C shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- 1 T dried onion
- 2 green onions, chopped






Directions

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees

- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the broccoli 1 minute. Drain, chop and set aside

- In a large bowl add the eggs, half n half, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Whisk together.



- Add the dried onion, bacon, broccoli, green onion and cheese and stir lightly




- Pour mixture into a greased pie pan



- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is lightly browned and the eggs are set



- Let cool slightly before serving



- Enjoy!
