Crustless Quiche Lorraine Recipe

This recipe is easy. Because I don’t do complicated. And I hate cooking, so I want to be in the kitchen for as little time as possible.

From start to finish, the Crustless Quiche Lorraine took me about 25 minutes.

What I really love, is that no matter what diet you are on, this recipe can fit: keto, Gluten free, low carb etc.

So let me show you exactly how easy this recipe is.

How to Make this Easy Crustless Quiche Lorraine

Another thing I love about this recipe is how you can just grab things from your pantry and refrigerator and make it. And yes, I do keep Gruyere cheese in my fridge. It’s versatile.

What you need:

An 8 inch Cast Iron Skillet

Olive Oil

Eggs

Thick Cut Bacon

Shallots

Gruyere cheese

Milk,

Salt and Pepper

Fry up your bacon and save some of the bacon fat to saute your shallots in

Pour it all back into the cast iron skillet and put the whole thing in the oven and 10 minutes later….
