Caramelized Onion and Broccoli Quiche














This was a quick way to make a delicious quiche! You can also substitute spinach for the broccoli, and add turkey bacon bits as an alternative. Enjoy with a light salad for any meal!

  • 1 box of Betty Crocker pie crust (or any other instant pie crust)
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 (10-ounce) package broccoli, chopped
  • 1/4 cup low-fat sour cream
  • 1 cup evaporated skim milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup caramelized onions (about 3 cups uncooked)
  • 1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese

Preheat oven to 350°.

Prepare the crust according to the box's directions. Roll out into a large circle, then fit into a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray.

Combine the broccoli and sour cream in a small bowl. Combine the evaporated milk, salt, pepper, egg whites, and egg in a medium bowl, and stir well with a whisk. Stir 1/3 cup milk mixture into broccoli mixture. Spoon the broccoli mixture into the bottom of the prepared crust. Add caramelized onions, and top with cheese. Pour the remaining milk mixture over cheese.

Place pie plate on a baking sheet, and bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until set. Let quiche stand 10 minutes.
