IMPOSSIBLY EASY VEGETABLE PIE

2 cups chopped broccoli* or sliced cauliflowerets
1/3 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup chopped yellow or red bell pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
1/2 cup original Bisquick mix
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 eggs

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray pie plate (9x1 1/4 inches) with cooking spray.

Heat 1 inch water (salted if desired) to boiling in 2-quart saucepan. Add broccoli; cover and heat to boiling. Cook about 5 minutes or until almost tender; drain thoroughly.

Mix broccoli, onion, bell pepper and cheese in pie plate.

Stir remaining ingredients together until blended. Pour into pie plate.

Bake uncovered 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown and knife inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.

*Grab a 9-ounce package of Green Giant broccoli cuts from the freezer to use instead of the fresh broccoli. It doesn't need to be boiled; just thaw, drain and add to the pie.

VARIATION:

IMPOSSIBLY EASY SPINACH PIE:
Use a 9-ounce package of Green Giant frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed to drain, for the broccoli; do not cook. Omit bell pepper. Substitute Swiss cheese for the Cheddar cheese. Add 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg with the pepper. Bake about 30 minutes.
