BROCCOLI QUICHE WITH HAM
6 eggs
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 ounces onion, chopped, about 1/4 cup
10 ounce package frozen broccoli florets
8 ounce Swiss cheese, shredded
1/2 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
2 cups ham, diced, about an 8 ounce package of sliced ham
Cook the broccoli and onion together until broccoli is tender. I did mine in the microwave on HIGH, covered, for about 8 minutes. Drain very well. Grease a large pie plate; add the cheese, ham and broccoli and mix. Beat the eggs, cream, mustard, salt and pepper well with a whisk. Pour evenly over the broccoli mixture. Bake at 350º 35-45 minutes until a knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

This is another winner. I had to add an extra 10 minutes of baking time to the original 35 minutes, so be sure to do the knife test to make sure the center is set well. The center should also be lightly browned when done.
