Fake garlic "bread" (turned tuna broccoli quiche)

Base recipe from http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/ , one of my favourite low carb recipe sites.  

Prep time- 5 minutes
Cooking time- 20 minutes
Feeds- 24 ish servings (can be frozen)


Number of things that get dirty- 
mixing bowl
spoon
baking dish

Ingredients
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 eggs
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, 1 ounce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded

optional tuna and shredded broccoli

Beat the cream cheese and eggs with a whisk until smooth. Add the cream, parmesan and seasonings (and tuna and broccoli if desired)
Line a baking dish with parchment paper (I use an 8x8 square); 
Spread the mozzarella evenly in pan. 
Pour the egg mixture over the cheese. Spread slightly with a spatula. 


Bake at 180*C for 20 minutes until lightly browned. Cool on a rack, then cut into 24 pieces. 


If desired, spread a little butter on them and sprinkle with garlic powder and parmesan cheese; broil just until butter is bubbly and very lightly browned.
