4 eggs
1 cup egg whites
1/4 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt used: Fage
1/2 tsp kosher salt
fresh cracked pepper
4 oz ham used: Boar's Head
1 head broccoli cut into florets
2 oz light cheddar cheese used: Cabot 75% light, grated

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F.
Spray a pie or tart pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Remove the pie crust from the container, and cut the crust in half. (This recipe uses half of the crust, you can use the other half for something else, or double the recipe to use the entire crust).
Place the pie crust into the pan, and fold the sides over to fit the pan.
Make sure the bottom of the pan is covered by the crust.
Bake the crust for 8 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, add the eggs, egg whites, yogurt, salt and pepper. Whisk thoroughly.
Cut the ham into small slices, grate the cheese, and cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
Add the ham, cheese, and broccoli to the egg mixture.
Remove the pre-baked pie crust from the oven. Spray the sides of the pan with more cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Add the egg mixture to the pan, and return the pan to the oven for 35 minutes or until set up.
