Ingredients
1 unbaked 9-inch deep-dish pastry shell
1-1/2 cups low-fat milk
3 extra-large eggs
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon chopped drained pimiento
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (3-ounce) STARKIST Flavor Fresh Pouch® Tuna (Albacore or Chunk Light)
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese
8 spears (4 inches each) broccoli
   
Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake pastry shell for 5 minutes; remove to rack to cool. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. For filling, in large bowl whisk together milk and eggs. Stir in onions, pimiento, basil and salt. Fold in tuna and cheese. Pour into prebaked pastry shell. Bake at 325°F for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in saucepan, steam broccoli spears over simmering water for 5 minutes. Drain; set aside. After 30 minutes baking time, arrange broccoli spears, spoke-fashion, over quiche. Bake 25 to 35 minutes more or until knife inserted 2 inches from center comes out clean. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut into 8 wedges, centering broccoli spear in each wedge.
 
Note   If desired, 1 cup chopped broccoli can be added to the filling before baking.
