Easy CrustLess Quiche
As much as I love making things from scratch. Its just not always possible. I’m a real person and I have to deal with real things like stress, work, school and making sure I practice what I preach by eating as healthy as I can.
Sometimes, I rely on frozen vegetables and that’s ok.
In fact, one of my most popular recipes for Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts was made from a package of frozen sprouts.
My new thing is, combining frozen and fresh vegetables with eggs and baking them into a crust-less quiche.
First I cook the frozen vegetable* on the stovetop or microwave.
Then add them to a greased baking dish along with whatever other veggies I felt like chopping up and mix them thoroughly.
Then crack and beat about 5-6 eggs and pour over top of the veggie mix and stir until they are evenly distributed.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 30 minutes or until cooked through.
To brown top, broil for a few minutes after cooked through.
We always have some sort of crust-less quiche in the fridge to heat up and add to breakfasts, lunches or dinners or just eaten plain by themselves. Also good topped with cheese.

Do you use frozen vegetables in your cooking adventures?






That looks YUMMY!! And yes, I do use frozen veggies from time to time. Do I need to remind you of my “chicken and green bean” phase?? Those bad boys were frozen and delicious.
Oh the chicken and green beans phase . . .
lol
Is there an validity to the statement that sometimes frozen vegetables are better than fresh because they retain more vitamins and minerals in some cases?
Hm.
Well I wouldnt say better, I would say more convienent
Only because as time goes on, the nutirents do lose some potency in the freezer.
A frozen vegetable could have the same nutrient level as a freshly picked one, it just lasts longer
That looks like a great recipe! I use frozen veggies all the time- actually I always use frozen brussels sprouts for roasting (so much easier and often less expensive than fresh), and I also love frozen creamed spinach!
Yes! I use frozen spinach a lot in dips and appetizers like spanakopita.
