Fussy Eater Fix:
Pick your Vegetable and Protein for this Quiche
This Crustless Quiche recipe is perfect when multi-tasking breakfast. Once blended, pour the egg mix over vegetables and protein mixture of choice. Once in the oven, you’ll have 45 minutes to relax and catch up before enjoying a fresh cooked delight.
Leftover cooked vegetables will not go to waste once you discover this fabulous recipe.
Cooked vegetables like: asparagus, roasted peppers, caramelized onions and peppers shine through.
I’ve included a recipe but you’ll use it as a guideline; you’ll soon develop your own breakfast favorites. I’d love to hear which combination you like best or which failed to pass the test.
Crustless Quiche
I hesitantly list the nutrients with this as it is always ever changing, depending on what is in season, or left over from the night before.
- 1 Tbsp Butter
- ½ C Chopped Onion
- 1 C Broccoli florets
- ¼ C Julienne Ham
- 1 C Sliced Mushrooms
- 1-½ C Skim Milk
- 5 Eggs
- 1 T Flour (or GF equiv. thickening agent)
- Dash Salt & Pepper
- ¼ tsp Bottled Red Pepper Sauce
- ¾ C Swiss Cheese grated
- Preheat oven to 325F,
- Lightly grease a quiche dish or 7-8in pie plate
- Melt butter over low heat in a medium fry pan.
- Add onion, broccoli and mushroom, sprinkle with 1/8 tsp salt. Cover and cook 10min over medium heat, stir occasionally.
- Add ham and cook uncovered 5 min or until all liquid has evaporated.
- Place cooked ingredients into prepared dish.
- While the above is cooking:
- In blender combine milk, eggs, flour, ½ tsp salt, pepper and red pepper sauce and blend until smooth, pour over cooked veggies.
- Add cheese, stirring to distribute evenly..
- Bake 45-50 minutes or until firm in the center, let stand 5-10 min.
I am so going to have to give this a try, though I will have to replace the ham with some Quorn as I’m vegetarian 😉
