Recipe of the Day - Broccoli Mushroom quiche



Ok, so my new endeavor on my goal of helping you all stay fit and healthy is that I am going to be sharing a recipe a day. :)



Clean Eating Broccoli Mushroom Quiché
(Makes 16 servings)

Ingredients
1 pie crust (I used this recipe)
1 (16 oz.) carton egg whites
2 cups cooked, chopped broccoli
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 lb. sliced crimini mushrooms
1 small red onion
1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 1 – Prepare pie crust and set aside.
Step 2 – Place all other ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well with a spoon.
Step 3 – Pour the mixture into the pie crust and place in the oven for approximately 45-60 minutes. Basically, you want to bake it until there is no liquid when you cut into the center.

Eat and Enjoy!

This recipe is not as low in fat as I’d like, but sometimes there is a delicate balance between fat content and taste. If you plan on making this, adjust the rest of your diet for the day accordingly.
