Lilies of the Valley
The sweet smell of Lily of the Valley fills the air as I sit on my porch and begin to write this post,. Â Each year our lilies grow stronger and more abundant. Â The new additions appear to stand alone in the patch, but just beneath the surface lies a network of roots connecting all of the delicate flowers. Â The Lilies are much like my amazing extended family as we are growing in number each year, and we go about our daily lives independent of one another. Â But beneath the surface we are connected by incredibly strong roots anchored in love.

Broccoli Quiche
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust unbaked
- 3.5 cups frozen broccoli thawed
- 1 cup red onions sliced thin
- 2 cups swiss and gruyere shredded
- 5 eggs
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- salt
- black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Servings:
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the pie crust into a glass pie pan and bake for ten minutes. I love to use the best quality ingredients I can find, so I often make my own crusts. However, trader Joe's has an excellent butter crust in their frozen section. It's absolutely delicious and a huge time saver. That's what I used today.
- Remove the pie crust from the oven and reduce the heat to 325 degrees F.
- Sprinkle one cup of the shredded swiss and gruyere cheese mixture evenly on top of the crust.
- Add the broccoli.
- In a saute pan on the stove top, heat the two tablespoons of olive oil and the onions with a pinch of salt, saute the onions until translucent.
- Spread the onions evenly on top of the broccoli.
- In medium size mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, cream and milk and add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle the remaining cup of cheese over the broccoli and onions...
- Pour the whisked egg, cream and milk mixture evenly over the broccoli.
- Place in the oven at 325 degrees F and bake for one hour and twenty minutes or until cooked through. If the top starts to brown, cover with aluminum foil.
- Remove from the oven. Serve and enjoy!
