Quiche
Ingredients
1 pre-made low-carb pie crust (or make your own using almond flour)
4 large eggs
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk of your choice)
1 cup diced vegetables (spinach, mushrooms, bell peppers, etc.)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or a blend of your choice)
4 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). If you're using a pre-made low-carb pie crust, follow the package instructions for pre-baking the crust. If you're making your own crust, prepare it according to the recipe or package instructions.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and almond milk until well combined. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme, if desired.
Spread the diced vegetables evenly over the pre-baked crust or uncooked crust if using a homemade one. You can use a combination of your favorite vegetables or stick to one kind.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the vegetables, ensuring it's evenly distributed. Add the crumbled bacon on top, if desired.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, cheese, and bacon. Make sure it covers everything.
Carefully transfer the quiche to the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown. To test if it's done, insert a toothpick into the center of the quiche. If it comes out clean, it's ready.
Once cooked, remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. This will allow it to set further.
Slice the quiche into wedges and serve warm. It can be enjoyed for breakfast, brunch, or as a light dinner. You can store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Feel free to modify the recipe by adding or substituting ingredients based on your preferences and dietary needs. Enjoy your low-carb quiche!
