Notes

1. This is an extremely flexible recipe. Keep in mind that you must chop your vegetables extra small in order for them to cook through with the rest of the quiche.

You may swap the broccoli for equivalent amounts of other *finely chopped* vegetables. Some suggestions:

spinach or kale- chopped up
cauliflower rice
bell peppers- cut very small
sun dried tomatoes- drained & chopped
shredded zucchini- moisture squeezed out
ham- cubed
bacon- cooked & chopped

Storage

Fridge– cool completely, then store individual slices in an air-tight container, or cover the whole cake dish and store. Refrigerate for up to 4 days.
Freezer– cool completely, then wrap individual slices or the whole casserole tightly in plastic wrap. Store in a freezer bag, reusable silicone bag, or meal prep container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Thaw– thaw overnight in the fridge.
Reheat– In the oven at 350ºF for 30 minutes (if reheating the whole quiche). Or, heat individual slices in the microwave until steaming hot. You may wish to heat on a paper towel to absorb extra moisture.
