Cook time: 17-23 minutes
Serves: 6
Ingredients:
Non-stick cooking spray
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
3 c. broccoli florets
3 T. water
1 c. sharp cheddar or Colby Jack cheese, shredded
6 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and crumbled
4 large eggs
½ c. heavy cream
½ t. onion powder
½ t. garlic powder
¼ t. dried thyme

Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Directions:
- Pre-heat oven to 350°F and spray an 8” x 8” casserole
dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick sauté pan over
medium heat. Add the broccoli and water and cook for 2-3 minutes, or just until
the broccoli softens slightly and turns bright green.
