  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 cup cheese shredded. I used extra sharp cheddar and an Italian mixture.
  • 1/2 cup half and half
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup chives

    dough

    • in small bowl add the flour, salt, oil and cold water. mix with a fork until combined. Set it aside while you prepare the filling.

    filling

    • sauté the onion in a little olive oil until soft remove, do the same with the ham and broccoli. You are not cooking them just heating them up. this isn't a necessary step but I won't put raw onions into anything I make, I only like them sautéed.
    • Lightly spray your tart pan, add the rolled out crust, pressing up the sides of the pan.
    • Sprinkle the ham, onions and broccoli all over the crust. then cover it with cheese. In a small bowl beat the eggs and add the half and half plus the milk and the chives. Pour this all over the cheese in the tart pan. Place your tart pan onto a sheet pan and into the oven for 35-40 minutes until golden brown.
    • remove sheet pan and tart from the oven, Place a coffee cup or small bowl under to remove the pan from the tart, using a spatula remove the bottom piece of the tart pan; slice and enjoy!
