Happy Easter! This weekend of course we made the obligatory Easter eggs and as usual I make quiche afterwards. When I was growing up we didn't hard boil the eggs. My mom would poke holes in the top and bottom and we would blow the yolks and white into a bowl. I'm assuming because my mom didn't want to waste the eggs. And rightly so. I hate wasting food so I do this as well and use the eggs for dinner!

I happened to have some pre made frozen crusts in the freezer I use but if you feel ambitious (or have special dietary needs) you can make your own!

Ingredients:

7 eggs
one pie crust (pre made or hand made)
1 cup of chopped up broccoli
1/4 of an onion finely chopped
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
2 cups of shredded cheese
salt and pepper
(I sometimes will thrown in powdered garlic and/or dill)

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the crust in the oven for 5 minutes to prebake.
Mix eggs, broccoli, onion, tomato, salt, pepper and half of the cheese into a bowl. Mixing well.
Put the mixture into the crust and use the rest of the cheese to cover the top.
Bake for 35-45 minutes in the oven.

Super easy! Especially if you use the pre made pie shells!

Happy Easter!
