Broccoli Quiche with Mashed Potato Crust

Ingredients

  • 2 large potatoes, peeled
  • 2 cups chopped fresh broccoli
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes; drain. Meanwhile, place broccoli in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Mash the potatoes with milk and salt. Brush a deep 9 inch pie dish with olive oil and press the potatoes in. Brush with remaining olive oil. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.

Step 4

Arrange onions, broccoli and cheese in the potato crust. Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Pour over broccoli and cheese.

Step 5

Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until slightly puffed and cooked throughout. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
