This is a great basic recipe for company breakfast. It is quick to put together, and can also be made ahead. Reheats nicely in the microwave. You can swap out any of the stir-ins as you like, and use up your leftovers.
8 large eggs
1/2 c. half and half
1/2 t. salt
1/8 t. black pepper
1 c. chopped cooked ham, sausage, or chicken
1 c. frozen broccoli florets (no need to thaw)
1/2 c. shredded cheese, or crumbled feta
(Other stir-ins include 3 oz. spinach, slightly sauteed with garlic and oil, halved cherry tomatoes
and anything else that you want)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Spray 9″ glass pie plate with nonstick cooking spray
Mix eggs, half and half, salt, and pepper, and pour in prepared pie plate
Evenly distribute the stir-ins over the top; you may have to push them down
Bake for 35-40 minutes
Let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing
