Broccoli & Ham Crustless Quiche

Broke down and made hubby try it.

So fluffy and delicious! I thought it had just the right amount of richness. Kid thought it was really good (except the edges – he wasn’t a fan of the firmer egg parts). Hubby is still not a fan. So now I make this to share with my parents instead!

I used my stand mixer to whisk the eggs then added the cream and whisked together.

I baked mine about 32 mins – just ’til butter knife (an inch from the edge) came out *wet* but clean. But, everyone’s oven is different, so I recommend watching closely from about the 30-min mark.

This can also be made with a cheddar cheese of your choice. I’ve successfully made this in an 8″ x 8″ glass baking dish, too.

Served with cornbread (w/ butter & honey) and dinner salad, makes me feel like we’re at Marie Callender’s!
