Crustless Quiche!

This was an easy decision on a Sunday morning when my husband was out for a paddle board with friends and I had leftovers in the fridge! Not to mention healthy!! I have to give props to my neighbor, Betsy, for making a similar quiche the morning before for brunch while watching the football game!

Here's the recipe:

6 eggs
2 egg whites
1/2 C. Whole Milk
1/2 C. Cream
1 C. Cheese- I used a mix of feta and cheddar
1/2 tsp. Salt
Fresh black pepper
1/4 C. Oat Flour-optional, just gives quiche a little more body! You can grind up oats in food processor or use another flour of your choice!

Fillings: Get Creative!
Leftover veggies
Blanched broccoli-diced
Caramelized onions
Corn
Turkey slices-diced
Fresh herbs-basil, dill, chives

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Whisk together the eggs, milk/cream, salt and pepper, and cheeses. Fold in flour and then fold in fillings. Pour into a buttered pie dish and bake for about 45-50 minutes until the middle has a slight juggle but not too much. The quiche will puff up in the oven and get a little golden brown on top. If it gets too brown cover with some foil and continue to bake. I usually serve with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt and a splash of hot sauce!
