How to Make Small Tuna And Broccoli Crust Less Quiche

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 6-inch pie plate.
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 cup of broccoli florets and cook for 2 minutes until bright green and slightly tender.
Drain the broccoli and set aside to cool slightly.
Drain one (5 ounce) can of tuna and pat dry with paper towels.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooked broccoli, tuna, 1 clove minced garlic, 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, and 1/2 cup of your chosen sharp cheese (Gruyere, extra sharp cheddar, or Swiss).
Pour the broccoli and tuna mixture into the prepared pie plate and spread evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup heavy cream.
Whisk in 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard, 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
Slowly pour the egg mixture over the broccoli and tuna mixture, gently tilting the pie plate to distribute evenly.
Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg over the top.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden brown.
Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
