This broccoli and Cheddar quiche gets its creamy texture from evaporated milk. It's a great recipe to make ahead: simply reheat before serving or cut into slices and reheat each morning for breakfast.

Just be sure to cook the broccoli only untilbarely tender or the final dish will have overcooked, soggy broccoli.
