Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, diced small
- 1 yellow onion, diced small
- 2 cups broccoli florets, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup low-fat milk
- 12 Large Rosemary Farm eggs
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 cup reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup pico de gallo
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the peppers and onions; cook, stirring often, until just softened, 4 minutes. Stir in broccoli and 2 tablespoons water, cover and cook 1 minute. Remove the skillet lid and cook until water is fully evaporated, about 1 minute. Transfer mixture to the glass baking dish, spreading it out evenly to cover the bottom.
- Whisk the milk, eggs, salt and black pepper together in a medium bowl. Stir in ½ cup cheese. Pour egg mixture over the top and cover with remaining ½ cup cheese.
- Bake until edges are set and top is golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the baking dish on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with pico de gallo.
Note: The USDA recommends cooking egg dishes to 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
