  • Butter, for ramekins
  • Coarse salt

DIRECTIONS
  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Butter four 8-ounce ramekins (or a 9-inch pie dish) and set aside. Heat a large saucepan and add 1 tablespoon butter; add broccoli, peppers and artichokes; cook 1 - 2 minutes until softened. Transfer to a cutting board, and blot dry with paper towels. Chop coarsely.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and nutmeg. Stir in broccoli, roasted peppers and artichokes and cheese.
  3. Place ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet. Ladle vegetable-cheese mixture into ramekins, dividing evenly. Bake until golden brown and puffed up, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve with a mixed-green salad, if desired.
