These crustless quiches are a tasty alternative to the standard cheese omelet. There’s a little more preparation involved, but they’re baked all at once in the oven as opposed to being fried individually in the frying pan.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 8 eggs

  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated

  • salt, to taste

  • black pepper, to taste

Directions

Prepare the Quiche

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

2.

Place the eggs in a medium-sized bowl and beat well. Add cheese, salt, and pepper.

3.

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium flame. Sauté onions in oil until golden brown. For broccoli quiche, add onions and broccoli to egg mixture and mix well. For red pepper or mushroom quiche, add red peppers or mushrooms to the frying pan with the onions and sauté another five minutes. Combine vegetables with egg mixture.

4.

Pour mixture into greased muffin tins, filling three quarters of the way. Bake for 30 minutes, until golden and puffy.

I think you can freeze them, but they might be a little watery when defrosted so I would heat up straight from the freezer.

Yes – I am lactose intolerant so I have been using the relatively new dairy-free cheese substitutes made from tofu or casein. For example, brands such as Tofutti or Daiya – either slices or shredded versions of cheddar, mozzarella and others. They are delicious and work very well!!

Pie crust for quiche Hi, can you bake it in a pie crust and if so, how long in the oven?

Crusts get burned, so be sure to cover the edges for the end of the baking. Start with 30 minutes and then see if it needs more. Most ready made pie crusts don’t need longer than that..
