Broccoli is probably my favorite vegetable and who doesn't like it with cheese? Those are the two main ingredients in my crustless quiche. Perfect for a last minute breakfast with a friend or as a side for a brunch. It's perfect to make a day of head a time and refrigerate until you need it. Pop it in the oven at 300 degrees for 45 minutes to warm it through. Plus it's gluten and vegetarian friendly.
