Easy Cheesy Quiche

Quiche is buttery crust, cheese, and eggs, with a few veggies thrown in for good measure. What's not to like? This recipe was simple and delicious, but took much longer than expected to bake. So allot time!

Veggie Quiche Yield: 1 9inch quiche
Adapted from Recipezaar

Ingredients
Vegetable oil for sauteing
1 small onion, chopped
1 medium bell pepper, chopped
2 cups frozen broccoli
1/3 c mayonnaise
1/3 c milk
4 eggs
1 c cheese, grated and divided (cheddar works well, but most any cheese will do)
Pepper to taste
1 small tomato, sliced
1 9inch pie shell

Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Heat oil over medium heat and cook onions, bell pepper, and broccoli until tender. Remove from heat. In a large bowl, mix mayo and milk until creamy. Add eggs and 3/4 c cheese. Add the slightly cooled vegetable mixture to the mayonnaise mixture. Pour into pie shell and garnish with tomato slices and remaining 1/4 c cheese. Bake for at least 1 hr until set and golden brown. To make sure the egg is set all the way through the quiche, wiggle a table knife around in the center and make sure no liquids rise to the top.
