Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |

| Frozen broccoli | 1 cup |
| Butter | 1/2 cup |
| Onion | 1 medium |
| Cottage cheese | 1 cup |
| Eggs | 8 large |
| Salt | 1 tsp |
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Grease a casserole dish or baking pan of your choice to prevent the quiche from sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen broccoli, softened butter, finely chopped onion, cottage cheese, eggs, and salt. Stir everything together until evenly mixed.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly to ensure the ingredients are well distributed.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden on top. You can check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the quiche; it should come out clean.
- Once done, remove from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Tips:
- You can add a variety of vegetables or seasonings to this quiche, such as bell peppers, spinach, or herbs like thyme or parsley, to make it your own.
- For a slightly different flavor profile, try swapping the cottage cheese with ricotta or cream cheese.
- This quiche can be served warm or cold, making it a versatile dish for leftovers or meal prep.
- To make the dish even faster, use pre-cooked broccoli or any other frozen vegetable mix you prefer.
