    Why This Recipe Works

    • This crustless quiche is not only delicious, it's low carb, high protein and amazing for meal prep! The secret hidden ingredient is low-fat cottage cheese and adds extra creaminess and protein without extra fat! If you're not a fan of cottage cheese don't worry, you won't even know it's in there!
    • It's such a great recipe for summer brunch and will impress anyone you share it with! Delicious seasonal asparagus, creamy goat cheese and mozzarella and savory ham for the win!
    • It's naturally gluten-free and can also be customized! Skip the ham if you're vegetarian and hashbrowns if you're keto!

    How To Make Crustless Quiche With Asparagus

    This recipe is easy to make and only takes a few steps and it's so worth it I promise! You'll pre-cook the asparagus first with shallots and fragrant fresh garlic. Then the eggs and cottage cheese get blended with a bit of half and half and dijon mustard. I used deli ham and simply chopped it. Once everything is assembled together, you'll bake the crustless quiche for about 30 minutes.

    Tips & FAQs

    • You can store the quiche in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat the leftovers in the microwave for an easy quick nutritious breakfast!
    • I recommend to serve this dish with a crunchy green salad with a vinaigrette like my champagne vinaigrette. The crunch and acid will really balance it all together!
    • Don't skip sautéing the asparagus with shallots and garlic! Not only delicious flavors will develop, it will also assure that the asparagus are cooked all the way!
    • If you make and love this recipe, I would so appreciate it if you left a star rating & review! Never miss a new recipe by following me on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and Pinterest!
