1 1/2 cups low-fat milk
3 extra-large eggs
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon chopped drained pimiento
1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (6 1/2 ounce) can StarKist Tuna, drained and flaked
1/2 up shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese
8 spears (4 inches each) broccoli
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Bake pastry shell for 5 minutes; remove to rack to cool.
