Quiche is one of my favorite low carb dishes for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. You won't even know the crust is missing. It is rich and decadent loaded with nutrient-rich spinach. The cheese melts and mingles with every bite. This quiche is so easy to make and tastes great. I like tho make it the beginning of the week so you I can reheat and eat for any weekday meal. Use whatever cheeses you like in this quiche. Such as goat cheese, mozzarella cheese, or monterey jack cheese, etc. Or use a combination of your favorite cheeses.
Crustless Spinach Cheese Quiche | Keto | Low Carb
Makes: 8 Servings
Ingredients:
8 eggs
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream (heavy cream)
1 1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese (or Cheddar, Mozzarella, Swiss, Goat etc.)*
6 to 8 oz fresh spinach, roughly chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 T butter
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
salt and black pepper to taste (approx 1/2 to 3/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper)
*Another option for cheese would be to do 3-cheeses: (1/3 cup goat cheese 3/4 cup mozzarella cheese, 2 to 4 tablespoons Asiago cheese)
Directions:
In a pan, melt 1 T butter. Saute onion in butter until softened. Set aside in a bowl to cool a bit. In the same pan, add fresh spinach and cook just until wilted, drain well.
Prepare a pie plate or 8x8 glass dish by spraying with olive or oil or Pam. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, mix eggs & cream. Add shredded cheese, cooled onion, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir until combined. Place spinach in your pie plate/baking dish. Top with egg mixture. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until center is just set. Note: the quiche will rise while baking, but will settle as it cools. A simple glass pie plate works great for baking a crustless quiche
