Ingredients

  • 1 can 6 oz of tuna, drained
  • 2 cups of fresh or frozen broccoli florets chopped
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or your preferred cheese
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme optional
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • If you’re using fresh broccoli, steam or blanch it briefly to soften it slightly. For frozen broccoli, thaw it and pat it dry with a paper towel. Chop broccoli into smaller florets.
  • Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or a similar-sized baking dish with olive oil or nonstick cooking spray.
  • In the prepared baking dish, evenly distribute the drained tuna and chopped broccoli.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until they’re smooth and slightly frothy.
  • Add in the milk, shredded cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Whisk everything together until fully combined.
  • Carefully pour the egg mixture over the tuna and broccoli in the baking dish.
  • Use a spatula to gently press down the ingredients so that they’re submerged in the egg mixture.
  • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the quiche is set and slightly golden on top. You’ll know it’s done when a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5 minutes.
