Savory Spinach & Broccoli Quiche image

I make this recipe all the time for brunch. My family absolutely loves it! It's savory and simple to make. Notes: I like to use the Cabot brand extra sharp cheddar. Cabot Cheddar can be purchased at the specialty cheese section in most grocery stores. You can also buy it at Whole Foods & Trader Joes.
