CRUSTLESS BACON, SPINACH & SWISS QUICHE - LOW CARB



Crustless Bacon, Spinach & Swiss Quiche - Low Carb image

I've read through a lot of recipes to come up with my version of this quiche. I wanted to make one that is crustless and low carb, and this one is a WINNER! But once I start eating it, I just don't want to stop! I thought I could make it ahead so I could have a quick breakfast on work mornings, but this rarely lasts out the day it was made!

CRUSTLESS TOMATO AND BASIL QUICHE (LOW CARB)



Crustless Tomato and Basil Quiche (Low Carb) image

I got this from the Low Sodium Cooking newsletter. This tastes best with fresh garden tomatoes. A great recipe to use up some of the summer garden produce. I used leeks and cheddar cheese because I had those on hand and it still tasted wonderful! You could add a baked crust if you want to, but it's not necessary.
