Ingredients 

  • 12 eggs
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 3 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 head broccoli
  • 1 medium onion
  • 2 frozen pie crusts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • ¾ teaspoon pepper

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Fine dice onion and chop the broccoli into very small pieces, discarding stem (or save to use later for broccoli cheddar soup).
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for 8 to 10 minutes, until onion is well cooked and translucent.
  • Crack eggs into a medium bowl and whisk together. Pour in cream and add salt and pepper, whisking until well combined.
  • Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese into the bottom of each frozen pie crust. Top with cooked onions and broccoli. Pour egg batter to fill each pie crust. Sprinkle each with 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese.
  • Bake on the middle rack for about 40 minutes, or until filling is set.
