Crustless Ham & Broccoli Quiche

Stacey Mincoff
This gluten-free, low carb Ham & Broccoli Quiche is great any time of the year, but it’s also a great way to use that leftover holiday ham.

Ingredients
 
 

  • 6 Ounces Ham
  • 2 1/2 Cups Broccoli
  • 1/2 Cup Red Onion
  • 8 Extra Large Eggs
  • 3/4 Cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 Tablespoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1/4 Teaspoon White Pepper
  • 4 Ounces Cheese mexican blend, cheddar, swiss, etc.
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C/Gas Mark 7. Line small baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
  • Chop broccoli and onion and place on backing sheet. Drizzle with a little olive oil, toss to coat, season with salt and pepper and bake for about 20 minutes or until slightly browned and tender, but not cooked all the way through.
  • Lower heat to 375°F/190°C/Gas Mark 5.
  • Whisk together the eggs, cream, dijon mustard, salt and white pepper. I also toss in any of the little green bits left on the cutting board from chopping the broccoli, but that purely optional.
  • Grease or spray tart pan, pie pan or casserole dish with oil to keep quiche from sticking.
  • Layer the broccoli and onions in the pan.
  • Layer the chopped ham on top, then pour the egg mixture over that.
  • Place the shredded cheese of choice on top for the final layer and bake at 375°F/190°C/Gas Mark 5 for 35-40 minutes or until puffed, set, slightly browned and the center doesn’t jiggle. Check by inserting a knife into the center. Eggs should not be wet.
