I made this for ZWT 5's trip to Australia and New Zealand and it was a tasty and easy to put together recipe. I used fresh broccoli and just zapped the bowl of florets for about 2 minutes in the microwave before adding to the tart. I also used Egg Beaters and non-fat milk and it tasted wonderful.

I had the neighbors over for a brunch and made this lovely tart. I served it with a side of fruit. They raved about it and asked for the recipe. This quick and easy dish will surely please your family and friends. Thanks so much for sharing it, CarolAT's. Can't wait to make it again.
