Crustless Asparagus & Bacon Quiche
StephieCanCook @StephieCooks
This is a low carb lower fat quiche, made so by skipping the crust and replacing heavy cream with a blend of low fat cottage cheese and 1% milk.
The focus of this dish is the asparagus so I intentionally used a light tasting cheese, mozzarella, to maintain the typical texture of a quiche but not mask the asparagus flavor.
I also use roasted asparagus because that's my family's favorite, but you can cook yours any way you like.

- 1
Cook bacon. Prepare your asparagus as desired and set aside to cool slightly.
Note: I roast my asparagus by drizzling with 2 tsp avocado oil, seasoning with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste, then cooking in a preheated 400°F oven for 15-20 min because we like ours soft. Cook to your personal desired doneness. - 2
While those are cooling set oven heat to 350°F. Add cottage cheese and 1/4 cup milk to a food processor and blend until smooth and about the consistency of heavy cream. If it's too thick add a little bit more milk and pulse a couple times.
- 3
Add eggs, salt, and pepper to food processor and pulse about 10 times to blend together with cottage cheese mixture.
- 4
Spray the bottom of a 9 or 10 inch deep dish pie pan with nonstick cooking spray. Cut up asparagus and bacon. Add to pie pan along with shred cheese and toss gently to combine.
- 5
Slowly pour egg mixture evenly over the top of filling ingredients. Jiggle the pie pan gently to ensure any air bubbles get filled in with the eggs. Place in oven and bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes or until center is just set and top is lightly golden brown.
- 6
Remove from oven. Let rest 10-15 minutes before cutting. Serve on its own as a light breakfast or with a fresh side salad for a light lunch or dinner. Enjoy!

Cooking is a hobby and a passion of mine. I love cooking and trying new and different things. The best thing about cooking? I get to prepare delicious food for my family and friends that they (almost) always love! Lol.Many of my recipes are experiments in what I could make with what was available at the time. Many are simply my version of classic and/or popular dishes. A few are variations of recipes I have found elsewhere online but adjusted to our tastes. No matter what, though, each of my recipes is tried and tested before posting and I hope you find as much joy in preparing them as I do.

The 'Best Before' date on the loaf of bread was close, so I decided to make some tasty quiches.Instead of bread, you can use frozen pie crust. Alternatively, you can pour the quiche filling into a ramekin (small oven-proof dish) without bread. It is nice!With or without bread crust, your choice! Recipe by Tomomaki0313

bacon crust quiche
I love quiche but hate the idea of putting down a pastry and making an entire pies worth of it. This simple receipe makes it very easy to have egg muffins and is easy to transport and put together later for lunch as well.

Bacon and Spinach Quiche
I wanted to serve something like this for brunch. I made mine easily with frozen puff pastry.It's easier if you bake the puff pastry on the day before making the quiche. I recommend using a chunk of cheese; preferably parmigiano reggiano or comte! It really makes it different from when you use store-bought grated cheese or easy melting cheese.

We don't stock heavy cream at home, so this is our family's usual quiche made easily without it.It makes it easier to remove the spinach's astringency by soaking it first in water then microwaving. Of course you can also boil it. For 4 servings. Recipe by Blue-Island

I came up with this recipe because I wanted to make a quiche that didn't use a pie crust. It also tastes great with spinach. You can make small individual quiches if you use a gratin dish or ramekins, and then bake them in the toaster-oven.The baking time will vary according to your oven, so keep your eye on it while it's baking. If it seems like the quiche is going to burn, cover the top with aluminium foil. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
