Vegetarian, Gluten-Free, and DELICIOUS Christmas Quiche Recipe:

Ingredients:

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 2 cups broccoli, chopped in small pieces (can be substituted for spinach or kale)
  • 1 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup sliced green onions
  • 6 eggs
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions:

  1. PREHEAT: the oven to 375°F. Lightly spray two 12-cup muffin pans or one 10-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
  2. VEGGIES:  Saute the red pepper and broccoli in a little bit of olive oil until most of the liquid has evaporated from the peppers and the broccoli is slightly soft. There should be about 2 cups veggies after they are cooked (you can use any vegetables you like).
  3. EGG MIXTURE:  Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt and pepper.
  4. STIR:  Stir in the cheese, cooked veggies, and green onions.  Pour it all into the pan or cups.
  5. BAKE:  If you use a muffin pan, bake for approximately 25 minutes, if you use a pie dish, bake for approximately 40 minutes (or until the egg has mostly firmed up in the middle)
  6. COOL:  Let the quiche cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.  It can also be served at room temperature or cold.
