My mother passed down this broccoli quiche recipe to me. She has been making it for over 30 years. You can serve it for brunch, lunch and even dinner. Any leftover quiche can be frozen and reheated in the microwave later. —Bridget Corbett, Valdosta, Georgia

Ingredients

  • 1 refrigerated pie pastry
  • 1 package (9 ounces) frozen broccoli cuts, thawed and chopped
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
