Crustless Quiche – Cottage Cheese Version


There’s more than one way to make syn free crustless quiches and having pretty much tried them all over the years I think this is the best version

Personally, I HATE cottage cheese with a passion but I have to say when you blend it with the eggs you can’t tell what it is, it’s just a very good quiche filling and more like a traditional version than the milk/egg version one I do

You can add whatever filling you want to these, the basic recipe is the same and it just depends what you like and what you’ve got in the house.  I often do these to use up a load of bits in the fridge.  

Recently I’ve made tuna and sweetcorn with mushrooms and a bacon/sausage with roasted veggie filling.  Obviously, you can made a vegetarian option if you prefer, mushroom is excellent as a filling as are roasted vegetables. 

I cook them in individual silicone slices that you can buy from Amazon.  You can make a big quiche if you prefer but I find this individual way means they cook better and are easier for portion control

Ingredients:
5 eggs
1 tub fat free cottage cheese
40g mature cheese grated (HEA)
2 teaspoons dried Italian herbs
Filling:
Tuna/sweetcorn/ mushrooms/onions
Bacon/roasted veggies
Whatever you have to hand!

Method:
Blend the fat free cottage cheese and eggs into a smooth liquid


Fat free cottage cheese & eggs for syn free crustless quiche
Pour into a bowl and add the grated cheese, Italian herbs and whatever fillings you want

Stir well to combine everything, it looks absolutely disgusting - try not to focus on that, it'll be fine when it's cooked!



Spoon into cases making sure there’s a good amount of filling in each one

Cook on gas mark 7 (180) for 30-40 minutes or until golden



Serve with salad, jacket potato and beans
