Wake up sleepy head to this delicious Broccoli and Ham Quiche! These can be made in ramekins with no crust.
If you are looking for an easy breakfast that is a little lighter on the calorie side, this crustless quiche is for you. It's loaded with veggies, a bit of ham, cheese and comes together quick.
You will love the ease of making it and no need to deal with crust. Even though real men don't eat quiche 🙂 We had these yesterday and will definitely be making again soon!
Yes, the DIY Guy really liked these. When we woke up, I said to just have a light breakfast because I would be making breakfast for lunch (needed to wait until I knew I could get some decent light to take some pics! Oh the life of a blogger!) It was worth the wait.
These could also be tailored to your liking with other kind of veggies. Just be sure to remove excess liquid so that they will bake up and not be watery. Another tip I should mention is that I let them set for about 5 minutes after removing from the oven. They were done perfectly!
We had a couple leftover and I think they will reheat up very nicely.
I hope you have a great week!!
