______________________________________________________________
This is my favorite set of ingredients in crustless quiche, but, as many of you know, this is infinitely variable. The premise of a good crustless quiche is a mix of colorful ingredients that are cooked just enough to not be crunchy after the quiche itself bakes. We saute the onion and then quickly poach the broccoli. You pour a flavorful egg custard over the whole thing (perked up with Romano cheese and pimentos) and bake. We add asmall amount of brown rice flour to the custard to give the base "weight", but it's not completely necessary. The quiche does cook for 35 minutes and then rests for 10, so this isn't the best on a busy night right after work. That said, it's perfect when you have a bit more time. As I've commented before I love the pacing of having baking time to clean up, prep the side dishes, and have a glass of wine. Anyway, I've included the recipe as a basis for whatever veggies (or meats, cheeses, etc) you'd like. Enjoy!

Note: This works fine with Lactaid milk for those of you who are lactose intolerant :)
