Low carb - crustless quiche. This is not Low-Fat (Substitute applicable ingredients for low-fat version to make it even healthier). Easy to do, fast and can swap salmon with other protein (tofu, shrimp, ground turkey/chicken). The following is suggested serving size. I eat small portion, but for other people this probably yield 6 servings instead of 8. Can substitute bell pepper with cherry tomato (take out seed and squeezed some of the juice out)
| 4 | cups spinach |
| 1/4 | cup 2% milk |
| 1/4 | tsp salt |
| 1/4 | tsp black pepper |
| 6 | egg whites |
| 1 | egg |
| 8 | oz salmon, chopped coarse |
| 1/2 | cup bell pepper, chopped coarse |
| 1/2 | cup parmesan cheese |
| 1/2 | cup cheese |
| 1 | tbsp butter |
| 3/8 | cup shallot |
- A: wilt the spinach in parboil water, drain all water (squeeze if necessary)
- B: sauted shallot with butter until transparent, then add the protein (salmon/tofu/etc.) & bell pepper/tomato
- C: mix eggs, salt, pepper, milk, mozzarella or jack cheese.
- Mix A + B + C, pour into non stick mold or buttered mold.
- Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top. (Add herb such as rosemary or some basil leaves on top if desired)
- Preheat oven 350°F
- Baked for 25-35 minutes or until side is golden brown and the top visibly 'dry', then switch to broil for 5-10 minutes to browned the top.
- Let cool for 10-15 minutes or more before serving.
