Crustless Quiche with Bacon and Spinach
This Crustless Quiche recipe has the perfect amount of bacon and spinach in every bite! Full of rich flavor makes this perfect for anytime of day, not just breakfast. You will not miss the crust!
It’s recipes like this that I love most of all. A little bit of prep and time in the oven, and I have 8 meals ready to go for the week!
This spinach and bacon quiche is so good as a crustless quiche, but you can definitely use your favorite pie crust as well. Either way, it’s going to be amazing!
Without a crust, this quiche is only 2 net carbs per serving!
It is loaded with spinach and bacon…no to mention the cheese.
I know it’s not traditional, but my favorite cheese in a quiche is Monterey Jack. Its creamy, melts so well, and doesn’t have a strong flavor.
You could definitely go with Swiss, though, if you want that Swiss flavor.

Made this today! It was fantastic. I added onion, mushroom and a little garlic to upgrade it a little. Will definately make again.
Could I use HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM instead of half and half?
I want to make the carb count as low as possible.
Also, I think I would only make half a recipe, since I am the only one eating this.
Yes, heavy cream will work
I like this recipe a lot. Have made two times. I did add Parmesan cheese and garlic powder the second time, something new for breakfast.
Hi

Yes, half cream half whole milk
Loved this recipe, and can add ham, or mushrooms, spring green onions into it, peppers, whatever I fancy in fact. Thanks. x
