Ah, another Monday and you know what that means? Time for another one of Lou’s Meatless Monday vegetarian dishes… on today’s menu: quiche! And guess what, not only is this a vegetarian quiche, but it also has a gluten-free crust! And want to know something even better? It tastes amazing. This quiche has the perfect balance of hearty veggies, cheese and delicious eggs, some milk and maybe a smidgen of cream… yum! This is a fun and unusual take on Meatless Monday, usually a nice soup or stew or pasta dish would be a Meatless Monday dinner, but not today!
I’m sure that everyone in your house will enjoy this quiche, it’s a big hit here! And the gluten-free crust is made with ingredients available at practically every grocery store!
Note: If you don’t want/need a gluten free crust, this can be made in literally an instant, it’s the crust that takes a little bit longer. You can use either a store bought crust, or your own recipe!
Yields 4-6 servings
