Salmon and Broccoli Quiche

This quick and easy quiche combines savory salmon, tender broccoli, and creamy mozzarella in a flaky crust. Perfect for brunch, lunch, or a light dinner, it’s a crowd-pleaser that’s simple to prepare.

Ingredients (Serves 4):

• 1 store-bought pie shell
• 6 eggs
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup small broccoli florets
• 1 cup salmon, cut into small cubes
• 1 French shallot, chopped
• 1 cup mozzarella, grated
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. Pre-Bake the Pie Shell:
   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Using a fork, prick the bottom and sides of the pie shell to prevent bubbling. Bake for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool slightly.
2. Prepare the Filling:
   In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth. Stir in the broccoli, salmon cubes, chopped shallot, and grated mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Assemble the Quiche:
   Pour the egg mixture into the pre-baked pie shell, spreading it evenly.
4. Bake the Quiche:
   Return the quiche to the oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the center is firm and set.
5. Cool and Serve:
   Allow the quiche to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!

Tip: Pair this quiche with a crisp green salad or a side of roasted potatoes for a complete meal.
