Crustless Quiche with Broccoli and Cheddar

Cultural Context

Originating from France, quiche is a savory pie often filled with eggs and cream, and it has become a staple in many households. This crustless version is lighter and quicker to prepare, making it a popular choice for breakfast or brunch. Broccoli and cheddar are a classic combination, providing a delicious balance of flavors and textures. Today, variations abound, with many incorporating different vegetables and cheeses to suit personal tastes.
