Inside scoop: This Garden Party Gluten-free Crustless Quiche is the perfect meal to prep for your entire week.

“The best part about this gluten-free crustless quiche? It plays triple duty as a great choice for breakfast, lunch or dinner making this my go-to for no-brainer meals when time is tight. And yes it is a frittata, but doesn’t crustless quiche make it sound easier?!” – Garden Goddess, AKA Heather Allen, Holistic Nutritionist 

Everyone needs a delicious quiche recipe in their database. Whether it’s got a flaky pastry crust, or it’s more like this gluten-free crustless quiche, AKA frittata, a quiche by no other name would still taste just as delicious.

And it’s one of our favourite healthy breakfast, lunch or dinner options that you can make at the end of the week (it’s quite simple to make as well), and have ready-made meals throughout the week.

For us, we just prefer to go crustless, for one, Jenni has a bit of a funky gut so she avoids grains as they make her feel unwell, and two, crustless is just way easier, less mess, and just as delicious. But, if you want to get some pastry action happening with your ‘now not so crustless gluten-free quiche’ definitely check out this recipe for a yummy almond flour crust recipe.

WHY THE GARDEN IS THIS GLUTEN-FREE CRUSTLESS QUICHE’S BFF

 

Okay, so now you know what your breakfast is for the next week, and you’re pretty excited you’re only cooking one day for a week’s worth of scrumptious breakfasts, but the next wonderful feature of this gluten-free crustless quiche, is that it loves fresh garden picks!

If you’re like us, you might not have a garden for whatever reason (renting, lack of time, hate bugs) but we have plenty of friends, nans, and nan’s friends that LOVE giving us all their garden goodies, and we love this (those grannies kick some serious garden ass BTW). Garden goodies in quiche is not only one of the best way to get a fresh dose of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants into your morning routine, but it’s also a great way to use up those veggies and herbs without really thinking about how you’re going to use up 100 lbs of nans zucchini.

Side note (and no lie), last year we made these Zucchini & Corn Fritters, these Zucchini Breakfast Cookies AND these Double Dark Chocolate Zucchini Muffins with my grandmothers leftover zucchini, her zucchini harvest was unreal.

It’s officially garlic, mushroom and onion season, and you’re going to be finding fresh greens, peppers and dill at the farmers market, so why not get them all into one freshly baked gluten-free, crustless quiche of goodness.

We also absolutely recommend getting local eggs, we love Conestoga Eggs or grab some at the farmers market (Conestoga uses local farms), all in all, look for organic, or free range eggs.

Another thing that we just love about this recipe is how simple it is to put together. You can mix and match your veggies, or play around with the herbs. All you do is whisk together, and bake and then you have a recipe that can provide breakfast or lunches throughout the week. It’s so simple.

We’re all about simplicity these days, as busy working moms/ career women, that’s why we put together a little something something to help you with your busy life. For 5 days we challenge you to cook 5 recipes with this 5 Ingredient Cookbook. A cookbook filled with simple, plant-based style recipes that contain only 5 ingredients.

    Wow! This recipe is delicious! I put more vegetable portions than mentioned so it took longer to cook. I made sure to cook until there was not so much liquid in the middle. I am eating the first piece cold next day and it’s incredible! I could just imagine how it would taste fresh and hot. The dill and sundried tomatoes make this recipe!
