Crustless Ham and Cheese Quiche

sunshinefromaz's Note:

This is a quiche that is so easy and quick. I make it everytime I have company overnight or for lunch. You can substitute most any meat, ie chicken breast or pastrami or sausage. Also you can use spinach instead of broccoli. I have also added chopped tomatoes, but you need to cook a little longer if you do. I like to serve with crusty bread and a salad. My company always love this and ask for the recipe. Enjoy!

I gave this five stars for quickness and easiness alone. I have to say it may have taken about 5 minutes for me to put it all together. I baked it for about 45-50 minutes and did put some foil on at the end. I would maybe increase the cheese next time, but I am a cheese lover and maybe add some crushed red pepper. Thanks for another great dinner sunshine!! I am glad I chose your recipes for the PAC!!

We thought this was one of the best crustless quiches we've tried. It was eggy but not at all rubbery so the texture was nice. I added 1/2 cup diced red pepper, 1/2 t dry mustard, 1/4 t garlic powder, and omitted the salt. Thank you for sharing a recipe I'll be making again! :-)
