California Quiche

From Taste of Home's Simple & Delicious May/June 2007

5 eggs
3/4 C milk
1/4 tsp pepper
4oz Havarti cheese, shredded
1 (3oz) pkg cream cheese, cubed
3/4 C frozen California-blend vegetables, thawed and patted dry
1 medium plum tomato, thinly sliced
1/3 C butter, softened
1 tsp minced garlic
12 slices French bread (1" thick)

In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and pepper. Stir in cheeses and vegetables. Pour into greased 9" pie plate. Top with tomato slices. Bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine butter and garlic; spread over both sides of each slice of bread. Broil 3-4" from the heat for 1-2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Serve with quiche.
