-
Who says real men don't eat quiche? It's really just an omelet in a pie crust. Make it for the whole family.
- Ingredients
-
- 6 oz pie crust, 9-inch, refrigerated
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup(s), sliced uncooked red onion(s), chopped
- 1 1/4 cup(s) part-skim ricotta cheese
- 1 cup(s) WW Reduced Fat Mexican style blend shredded cheese
- 1 large egg(s)
- 2 large egg white(s)
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp table salt, or more to taste
- 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground, or more to taste
- 10 oz frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and well-drained
- 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375ºF. Press pie crust into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch, removable-bottom tart pan or a 9-inch pie pan; refrigerate until ready to use.
To make filling, heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until soft, about 3 minutes. Transfer onion to a large bowl and add ricotta cheese, cheddar cheese, egg, egg whites, mustard, oregano, salt and pepper; mix well and fold in broccoli. Spoon mixture into prepared crust and level surface with a wooden spoon; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Bake until a knife inserted near center comes out clean, about 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing into 8 pieces. Yields 1 piece per serving.
