  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 11 ounce package piecrust mix (for 2-crust pie)
  • 1/2 of a 10-ounce package frozen chopped broccoli, thawed and drained
  • 3/4 cup finely shredded Swiss cheese (3 ounces)
  • 1 cup fat-free milk
  • 1/2 cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed, or 2 whole eggs, beaten
  • 2 teaspoons snipped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat thirty-six 1-3/4-inch muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

2. Prepare piecrust mix according to package directions. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to slightly less than 1/8 inch thick. Using a 2-1/2-inch fluted round biscuit or cookie cutter, cut dough into circles. Reroll scraps, cutting additional circles. Line each muffin cup with a pastry circle.

3. Pat broccoli dry with paper towels. Divide broccoli and cheese evenly among pastry-lined muffin cups. In a small bowl, combine milk, egg product, dill, and salt; spoon about 2 teaspoons of the milk mixture into each muffin cup.

4. Bake about 25 minutes or until puffed and set. Cool in pans on wire racks for 5 minutes. Loosen and remove from pans. Serve warm. Makes 18 servings (2 quiches per serving; 36 total).

Make Ahead Tip
  • If desired, freeze cooled quiches in a freezer container. To reheat, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place frozen quiches on a baking sheet. Bake, uncovered, for 10 to 12 minutes or until heated through.
