Veggie Cheese Quiche
Ingredients
-
4 large pasture eggs
-
2 large pasture egg whites
-
3/4 cup organic coconut milk
-
3/4 teaspoon himalayan salt
-
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
-
2/3 cup finely sliced goat cheese or crumbled pasture feta cheese
-
1/2 pound fresh ground organic turkey
-
1/4 cup yellow onion, diced
-
1/2 cup scallions, diced
-
1/2 chopped organic mushroom
-
1 clove garlic, chopped
-
2 tablespoons chopped fresh organic herbs (rosemary, sage, thyme)
-
1 cup chopped organic spinach or kale
-
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
-
(Can substitute veggies try: 1/2 each of tomatoes, asparagus or broccoli. Also can try sundried tomatoes or olives.)
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350F degrees and grease with 2 tablespoons of olive oil a 9 inch round glass baking dish.
-
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, coconut milk, salt, pepper, and goat cheese together until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
-
Heat a 10 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil, turkey, onion, scallions, mushrooms and garlic. Stirring frequently, cook for 5 minutes or until the turkey is a little browned. Add the yellow pepper, spinach or kale, 2 tablespoons of chopped herbs and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-
Transfer all ingredients into the 9 inch glass greased baking dish. And bake for 45 minutes or until filling is set and no longer jiggles. Cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This quiche makes great leftovers. Store tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
-
Make it ahead: Baked quiche freezes well, up to 2 months. Thaw overnight and bake at 350F to warm up for 20 minutes, give or take.
