Super Easy, Super Good Recipe
Crustless Tomato-Pepper Quiche
Instead of being baked in a high-fat crust, this unusual quiche incorporates
flour into the filling. As it bakes, the flour settles to the bottom of the pan to
form a crust-like layer.
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 medium red bell peppers, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
1 medium onion, minced
1 cup chopped tomato
2 whole eggs
3 egg whites
1 cup low-fat (1%) milk
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2/3 cup flour
1 cup bottled salsa
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray 9-inch quiche pan (without a removable
bottom) or 7- x 11-inch baking pan with no-stick cooking spray.
- In a large no-stick skillet, heat oil over low heat. Add red and green bell
peppers and onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables have
softened, about five minutes.
- Stir in tomato and cook until almost all liquid has evaporated, about five
minutes. Transfer vegetables to a large mixing bowl and set aside to
cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, beat together whole eggs and egg whites. Stir in milk,
Parmesan, salt and black pepper, and mix until well combined. Whisk in
flour.
- Transfer vegetables to prepared pan. Pour egg mixture over
vegetables and bake until eggs are just set, about 35 minutes.
- Cool quiche 10 minutes before cutting into six wedges. Serve topped
with salsa.
