Note; This recipe appears in the New Sonoma Cookbook. This crustless quiche is so creamy and delicious it will quickly fill you up and leave you happy. There's nothing like the combination of eggs, herbs and different cheeses. You can use dill, thyme, mint, oregano, parsley or basil or a combination of herbs and the quiche will still be delicious. You can substitute frozen chopped spinach in place of the broccoli and the quiche will be just as creamy. I highly recommend making this quiche on a Sunday morning when you're relaxed and not in a hurry. You'll want to enjoy this treat and you can eat whatever is left for your next breakfast.
