Questions & Replies

  1. Hi. I am curious, is the fat content correct under the nutrition info (18g per serving)? Just seems high for what's in this recipe. Love the quiche! :)

  1. Loved every single bite, down the crustless crumb! I love mushrooms, and I love the diced onion in it too. I did use whole eggs, because, at the price of eggs, we just used the whole protein, and all of it was wonderful! I sprayed the top with green onion, and a bit of large coarse sea salt. This worked perfectly for a snowy weekend, when we worked so hard, but didn't have a lot of time to cook. Served with slice tomatoes and cucumbers.

  2. Excellent recipe! Threw it together and into the oven in 15 minutes, then took the dog for a walk while it baked (how convenient!). I added a box of thawed, drained spinach, and next time I'll decrease the milk by half a cup since my finished product turned out a little soggy. But overall, a great recipe!
     
  3. We loved this recipe. I made up for missing milk with sour cream, doubled the spinach, and used about a cup of Parmesan. Traded Bruno g bSwush hot sauce for Italian seasoning. Delicious!!
     
  4. Honestly, by far the best quiche ever. I did substitute a harvest/ herbs de provence blend instead of italian spices and about 1/3 of my spinach was fresh. So so yummy!!
     
  5. This was awesome! I didn't have any spinach so chopped up broccoli and it turned out great. I didn't miss the yolk or heavy cheese other quiches normally have at all. Yum!

Tweaks

  1. I can't say how good this is as I haven't tried it yet. I was just looking for a low fat quiche recipe to give this hint. Instead of a pie crust for your favorite quiche recipe, use wheat germ. Just gease the pan (heavily) and coat with toasted or raw wheat germ. Just be careful not to disturb the coating when you add the filling. I like toasted better, but the raw is nutritionally superior. Works with any recipe.
