A delicious and easy-to-make savory pie featuring broccoli, bacon, and cheese.
Cook the bacon in the microwave until crispy, then crumble it into small pieces.
Microwaving bacon on a paper towel-lined plate helps absorb excess grease.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half cream, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Whisking thoroughly ensures a smooth and creamy filling.
Grease a 9-inch pie plate and pour half of the egg mixture into it.
Use non-stick spray or butter to grease the pie plate for easy serving.
Evenly distribute the broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, and crumbled bacon over the egg mixture.
Arrange the ingredients evenly to ensure each slice has a bit of everything.
Pour the remaining egg mixture over the fillings, ensuring everything is covered.
Gently shake the pie plate to help the egg mixture settle.
Sprinkle the diced red bell pepper on top for garnish.
The red bell pepper adds a pop of color and sweetness.
Bake the pie in a preheated oven at 350°F for 35 minutes or until the center is set.
Check for doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
Let the pie cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Allowing the pie to cool slightly makes it easier to slice and serve.
