The best recipe for Crustless Veggie Quiche
If you have little ones who don’t eat veggies, this is a great way to “sneak” them in! I left the veggies rough cut, but you could pulse in a food processor to prevent them from being picked out! I added mushrooms, kale, onion and carrot however, you can add any vegetables you have on hand! Zucchini, broccoli, spinach…they all would work well! In place of cream, I used greek yogurt. This cuts down on the saturated fat while keeping the calcium and protein content high!
