One of many tasty recipes: Broccoli Quiche

Serves 2 | Prep time: 10 minutes | Cook time: 30 minutes | GLUTEN-FREE, NUT-FREE

Quiche dishes traditionally have a thick crust and combine eggs with various fillings. In this crustless keto version, broccoli takes center stage, with yogurt and cheese providing complementary tanginess. It’s a filling option that’s easy to make ahead of time in preparation for busy mornings.

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.

2. In a medium bowl, mix together the egg, egg whites, Greek yogurt, salt, pepper, and garlic.

3. Fold in the broccoli and cheddar cheese.

4. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie dish and bake for 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set.

5. Remove quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Prep Tip:

This quiche will be thin, so don’t wait for it to puff up. Think of it more as a broccoli crêpe that you could even roll up to eat.
