Quick + Easy Quiche

Quick + Easy Quiche

A quick and easy mid-week meal that’s packed with 20g of protein per serve. This delicious recipe is from my cookbook, SIMPLE HEALTHY RECIPES.

Organic eggs and tofu are packed full of proteins, essential vitamins like B12 and calcium for bone health. Spinach adds iron, fibre and antioxidants, while leeks are a wonderful prebiotic for gut health and are rich in antioxidants to support immune health and total wellbeing.

Enjoy this quiche for lunch or dinner, or prepare ahead of time to take as your lunches during the work week.

METHOD

PREHEAT your oven to 200°C fan forced.

COOK the leeks in the olive oil over a gentle heat until soft.

ADD the spinach, season with salt and cook until wilted.

COMBINE the spinach in a large bowl with the eggs and parmesan.

POUR the mixture into a lined oven-proof dish.

BREAK UP the tofu or ricotta, if using, and distribute into the egg mix.

NOTES & INSPIRATION

Add any leftover cooked vegetables that you have lying around int your fridge.

I also love adding roasted sweet potato chunks and serving with basil, lemon and leafy greens.
