Broccoli And Provolone Quiche

Ingredients

• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

3. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat, and saute garlic and onion until tender. Mix in the broccoli, and continue cooking 1 to 2 minutes. Season with red pepper flakes. Transfer to the pie crust.
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg yolk, and heavy cream. Pour over the broccoli mixture in the pie crust. Season with salt and pepper. Top with Provolone.
5. Bake 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
