Crustless Vegetable Quiche

A very tasty crustless vegetable quiche, perfect for brunch, and substantial enough for lunch or dinner. Leftovers are great, warm or cold.

I really like this crustless vegetable quiche. It is gorgeous – so colorful with all the vegetable colors. I serve it often for brunch, and everyone raves about it.

How to make a crustless vegetable quiche

It’s so easy. Mix defrosted mixed vegetables with eggs, sour cream, and spices. Pour into a buttered pie dish and bake until puffed and golden. That’s it! For the detailed instructions, scroll down to the recipe card.

Is this a healthy recipe?

I think it is. Eggs are very healthy, as are vegetables. As for the cheese and sour cream in this recipe, happily, current research says that for most healthy people, dairy fat is harmless.

Since it’s a crustless vegetable quiche, it is also relatively low in carbs. Although the veggie mix that I use contains carrots, peas, corn, and green beans, so it’s not very low carb. If you’re on a very low carb diet, you could try finding a lower-carb veggie mix. Or try this wonderful crustless broccoli quiche instead.

How to serve crustless vegetable quiche

Besides serving it for brunch, you can also serve it for dinner. It’s substantial and filling enough to be served as a main course. I like to pair it with a simple tossed salad or with this quick and tasty tomato salad.

What about leftovers?

Leftovers of this crustless vegetable quiche keep well in the fridge, in an airtight container, for 3-4 days. They are delicious warm or even cold. Sometimes I just grab a slice for a quick afternoon snack and eat it straight out of the fridge! It’s surprisingly good. When I do reheat the leftovers, I do it in the microwave on 50% power.
