Low Carb Crustless Quiche Lorraine

Low Carb Crustless Quiche LorraineLow Carb Crustless Quiche LorraineLow Carb Crustless Quiche Lorraine.  This is a Crustless Quiche Lorraine made low carb, duh, without the crust.  I guarantee you will not even miss it. As you can see I also make this in a smaller size suitable to split with a buddy.

I will never understand why people think it is so important to have a high carby crust with any quiche as it is so unnecessary. If it’s made correctly, the flavors with by far out-shine any crust you could possible put in it.
