Hot Mama Notes: This quiche was delicious. :) I used a little over 2 cups of broccoli. Closer to 2.5 cups. However, I didn't feel like I had a problem with the filling overspilling the pie crust, thankfully! I used about 3 cloves of garlic. I think next time I would mix all the filling items together before putting them into the pie crust, so that the resulting filling mixture is more homogenous. I followed the directions exactly, and while the broccoli and the milk/egg mixture was fine, I did not like how all the cheese was sort of glommed on top. Also, I am not sure if this is why the quiche was a bit watery, but I might try draining the broccoli mixture before adding it to the pie crust (or mixing it with the remaining filling items).
We will definitely make this again some time! Grade: A-
